    With the Tribunal decision letter saying you were placed into the WRAG not Support Group then i would definitely say that the letter you received from DWP is because they can't pay you any ESA because of the 365 day rule.

    I have not been placed in any group, i have no letter to say anything about groups, i telephoned them to ask what group i will be going in, hence the mess.
    Winning a tribunal with 18 points and not to be reassessed to getting a p45 and saying i am not on ESA all in weeks.
    Very confused by what law says i can not be paid ESA.

    "letter you received from DWP is because they can't pay you any ESA because of the 365 day rule".

    This can not be, no letters or telephone calls to my wife to say anything has changed.
    All i did was to ask them if i will be in a group or support group with the tribunal letter findings.

    We are going around in circles here and not getting anywhere fast. The letter you received was for your ESA claim and not your wife's. The Tribunal decision letter was schedule 2 which is WRAG.

    An internet forum really isn't the place for help here because it's far too complicated. No one can see any paper work and any case and for this reason i'm going to advise that you get some expert face to face advice from an agency near you. If you take all of your paper work with you, they will advise you further.

    Sorry after today, 2 telephone call from the DWP and the DWCA,  who can not sum this out , said i am in the wrag group for 36 months, and forget about the rest.
    This is not a problem, he said my claim will carry on from a different date.
    What  the hell is this.

    From this, it is wrong.
    I am not asking for support group, but asking about "if".
    I have not got any letters or phone calls

    I'm baffled and i'm afraid i can't give you anymore advice regarding this. You need to get some face to face advice from an agency near you and take all your paper work to them so they can have a look and give you the correct advice.

    Glad to hear they may the right decision in the end. As for time scales of how long you're in the group, there isn't any because it's an ongoing award but they can reassess you anytime from 3 months.

    Thank's Chloe,
    My assessment was cut short, they had no time left to do a mobility assessment so no wiser why i went through all this in the begining.
