In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
The term "Limited Capability for Work" is in reference to the WRAG whereas " Limited Capability for Work Related Activity" applies to the Support Group, so someone who has LCW but not LCWRA would be in the WRAG.

Hi SL,
This means that you have been placed in the Work Related Activity Group. You will be obliged to undertake Work Focussed Interviews if asked to do so. It is often possible to get these carried out over the phone or even, rarely in your own home. This is entirely at the discretion of the JobCentre advisor, you should phone and speak to them as soon as the first appointment arrives if it is something you would like to request.
Work Focussed Interviews
You can also be mandated to the Work Program (unless appealing against the decision)
Work Programme
I'm afraid that Contributary ESA can only be paid for 365 days for people in the WRAG. After that you would be means-tested to see if you are eligible for income-related ESA
12 Month Limit for ESA(CB)
I see that your username might be your real name. Many people prefer to use an alias on a public forum such as this, in order to maintain some anonymity. If you wish to change your username you can easily do it by following the advice in this FAQ
12 Month Limit for ESA(CB)
finally, you might like to bookmark this topic, or make it a favourite on your web-browser so that you can find it easily in future. Then you can ask all your questions here rather than starting a new topic each time
