Hi n,
You should be assessed financially to see whether you qualify for payment of IR ESA using an ESA3 Form :
Sample ESA 3 Form If you don't qualify for IR ESA, payment will cease.
If you are then successful at your appeal and placed into The SG, this SG award will be backdated to the time of the WRAG award. You will be paid any difference in back pay owed between WRAG rate and SG rate, and payment of CB ESA in the SG would be reinstated from the time that your 365 days entitlement to CB ESA was exhausted.
Payment of CB ESA would then remain for as long as you stayed in the SG, as there is no 365 days entitlement limit to CB ESA in The SG.
