PIP and ESA

Hello
I have a question if I received the PIP - Daily Standard, how I will be assigned to the ESA support group ?.
I will be sent to the Medical Assessment or sent documents with explanation of the PIP decision.
Which group can I be assigned to at ESA?

Earlier I have Universal Credit -Limited Capability for Work until 30/09/2019.

It is madness, I know, but unfortunately your ESA assessment will not consider the decisions made for your PIP entitlement. Both entitlements will be assessed and decided separately... You can however, submit all of the same evidence to your ESA claim as you did for PIP, plus any new or more recent evidence that you have to support your claim for ESA... The amount of money that you receive from ESA will not be affected by PIP and neither will your PIP payments be reduced when or if you receive ESA.
The amount of ESA that you receive will be based upon your own individual circumstances and your ability to do any work, and even though PIP have already decided this, ESA will carry out their own assessment and then make their own separate decisions...
