Support Group Contribution Based ESA was created by Leslianne01667
Hi - I have been automatically put into the Support Group, many thanks for all the advise here. I claim contribution based ESA as my husband works. It says on the DWP site that the Support group payments do not stop after a year. Just wondering will I still need to have the right contributions in the relevant tax years to continue to get it? Does anyone know? Thanks

Hi La01667,

Congratulations of The SG Award without the need for a "medical" !! :cheer:

Now that you have been placed into The SG in receipt of CB ESA, there is no 365 day rule and you will continue to receive CB ESA in The SG for as long as your remain in The SG.

If you are downgraded to The WRAG at some future reassessment you will still have your 365 days entitlement to payment of CB ESA "whilst not in The SG".

You may find : This Post interesting.
