    Hi,

    Once a decision is made you will either be kept in the Support Group, moved to the WRAG or be found fit for work. If you're found fit for work your ESA including the SDP will stop.

    Evidence will be needed to support your claim.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
