in Employment & Support Allowance (ESA)

I am on new style esa (cb) based. Was put on it following my health condition worsening. I was put into the .Support Group. But I have noticed all sort of posts on here due to esa(ir) and change to uc. That I know is not applicable to me.

But can someone state are "support group" claimants still currently suspended for wca reviews. Daily I dread the post and any brown envelope arriving to go through this pantomime again?

Does anyone know if they remain suspended for "support group" or have they restarted? Also anyone any ideas how long the back log is? It will be hitting 3 years later this year and just daily already fearing anything from them in the post.... bad enough coming to terms that now I'm permanently disabled....

    Hi

    I was reassessed last year after about ten years of being left alone by dwp.

    I had a telephone assessment and I remained in the support group.

    The envelopes these days tend to be white, not brown.

    Support Group is an ongoing award. Most claimants won't have regular reviews even when they are back up to full capacity. It's not worth worrying about until you get the letter in my opinion, there's no way to predict if or when you'll get one.
