charl1234

Know someone whom gets esa contribution based,but is in support group, normally it's 12 months but if in support group it's ongoing can anyone confirm this??? Looking online it says if in support group 12 month rule doesn't apply advice needed please thanks in advance

That's correct. In the Support Group contribution based or new style ESA can continue for as long as the claimant remains in the Support Group.
