You don't say how long it is since you were placed in the Support Group so it's impossible to off an opinion, legally you can be re-assessed at any time after three months have elapsed since the last Decision on your claim.
Unless the ESA50 is withdrawn in writing then you must complete it and return it by the required date.
This is a full re-assessment of your claim so you should complete the form in detail and supply any evidence you have to support it, even if has been previously submitted.
Even though there have been no changes to ESA recently I would advise you to use the latest claim guides.
