I have claim ESA(CB) and am in WRAG. In May I sent in a change of circumstances form as I have now been diagnosed with an additional medical conditon, and also a small increase in a pension payment I also receive. The DM letter came back to say that nothing would change. As my health has deteriated I think that I should be in the support group, so I appealed. I have now been in the WRAG for 365 days so my benefit has stopped. Will I get any benefit as I have appealed, or will I have to live on thin air as I suspect?

I am afraid, unless you are eligble for Income Related ESA, then you will receive no payments while you appeal, and will only receive back payments if placed into the Support Group.
