Hi sb,
The type of ESA that you are entitled to IR ESA or CB ESA, has nothing to do with which ESA group you are placed in (WRAG or SG)
If you CB ESA has ceased due to the 365 day limit to entitlement, you can request that you are financially assessed by The DWP, to see whether you can pass the "Means Test" with respect to household income, assets, capital and savings.
This would generally be done by filling in an ESA 3 Form, which you should request from the Benefits Office dealing with your ESA.
See :
