I assume you are referring to your ESA(CB) payments stopping because of the 365 day rule.

Unfortunately, your appealing makes no difference to this and your payments will stop in February. If your appeal to be placed in the Support Group is successful, then they will be restarted and you will receive back payments for any lost payments.

Alternatively, if you are eligible, you can ask to be switched to Income Related ESA.
