I've been on IB (CB) for several years if I am transfered to eas (cb) will payment be for 365 days? I have read previous post but I'm still not clear. I thought I read somewhere that if you have already received IB (CB) then payment stops straight away.
If you are placed in the WRAG on transfer then your payments will be limited to 365 days.
If you are placed in the Support Group then there is no limitation
The amount of time you have spent on IB is not used in the calculation.
If your ESA(CB) is time limited, then you may still be able to claim Income Related ESA subject to your income, assets, and any hours that a partner works.
