    Trouble with printing it yourself, is the amount of pages and then getting back to them. It can be tricky to get it done. Remember every page is a sheet where as the booklet is back to back. 

    I've never found that to be a problem, i just use a bigger envelope.

    Same here, I've twice used the online/printed version then used a bigger envelope and sellotaped their pre-paid reply envelope to it.

    If not a bigger envelope then double side printing... print the odd pages first then even on the same paper... just have to make sure you test so you know how to orientate the paper for printing on the back

    Presumably they can write better English than they can speak? as I'd be more concerned about the extent of illness being lost in translation 


    I agree with this. Do you have access to a printer? If so then the ESA50 form is available online to fill in but you'll need to save it and then print it. Any extra information can be added to extra sheets of paper and can be sent with the form. This will be a lot easier than having to write everything yourself. You can then make sure that everything that's on the form is correct. See link. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capability-for-work-questionnaire


    Unfortunately I don't have a printer.
    Your local library will have printers.
