Wrag To Support group win but!

This was about being placed in the WRAG group first week in November 2012 .
However .
A letter has come saying this is what we will pay you each week and includes the Support Group amount as well as Severely disabled amount as well as the Disability Income Guarantee amount plus the £71 Living expenses amount.... amounts being applicable between 6th November-31st December 2012.=£178.05
Arrears of £221.01 to be paid.
From 1st January 2013 your ESA will be £109.05 amount
But didn't it state the previous sum was £178.05?
From 9th April ESA will be £109.45
So the assumed sanction of £71 for not attending a WFI[ because she wasn't fit to go into this group because of a severe mental disorder ] is still in place ?Although she wasn't told that a sanction was going to be imposed first week in January[ what it looks like to me ]
Can anyone figure these figures out ? I know it's a win to be moved from WRAG but these figures ? Maybe another head needed?

We are not in a position to calculate payment amounts on the forum, but a quick observation, the difference in the two amounts you quote is £69 not £71!
As to the missing Decision letters, I assume that there has still been no official notification of the WRAG sanction, I would suggest you contact the DWP office dealing with his claim in writing, requesting copies of the Decision notices.

The figures quoted "From 9th April" may well include the annual rise, see :

That was my first thought, but the £109.45 figure does not corrrespond to any combination for ESA that I can see, so it really need someone to sit down and work it out from scratch.
