HI, my husband started claiming ESA in 2010 and was put in the work related contributions based group. After many interviews, finally in 2014 he was put in the support group of income related. My question is, he didnt get any worse with his illness, he should have always been in the support group as far as we are concerned. How can dr in 2014 change to support group when his condition hasnt worsened. This has become a problem now because he is on income related, he will lose his BT pension payments, whereas if he had been on contribution based support, he could keep it.
