The ESA50 Questionnaire
Some people might receive Employment Support Allowance based on the medical information they provide alone.
But most people will have to fill in the ESA50 questionnaire as part of their Work Capability Assessment.
This is so that the DWP are aware of what they are and are not able to do.
This information comes from the Work Capability Assessment factsheet. For more information on ESA see the Employment and Support Allowance factsheet
You may want to get some help filling in the questionnaire. Your local Citizens Advice Bureau or other welfare benefits advice agency should be able to help you face to face.
You can usually find their contact details in your local telephone book or Yellow Pages. You can also call the Rethink Advice and Information Service on 0300 5000 927 between 10am-1pm Mon-Fri.
