Am I likely anything for being moved into the support group? Not sure how it works, can anyone explain?

I have been on ESA since 2014. Since my last WCA which was done on 1st March, I have been placed into the support group. As I was in the WRAG last time, am I likely owed anything for being moved into the support group? Not sure how it works, can anyone explain?

Thanks

You will receive Support Group amount from the date of the decision to place you into the Support Group. You won't receive any backdated money from the time you were in the WRAG. Support Group amount is £127.15 per week.

This is the amount including the enhanced disability premium. If the OP is not able to claim this, the support group amount for a single person is £110.75 a week.

£110.75 per week is Contributions based. As the OP was in the WRAG since 2014 (they edited their post and removed this information) see my quote. They would have been claiming Income Related because Contributions based is only paid for 365 days. Which is why i said £127.15 per week, this is the Income Related amount for those in the Support Group and Enhanced disability premium is automatically paid.

Not sure why you decided to edit your post when i had already quoted it in my reply. Were you hoping for a different answer from someone else?
