Was a Decision made in 2016 using that form?
Either way I think you should consider asking for the assessment to be postponed to allow you to complete an ESA50 at no fault to you.
If you can print it then you can download a copy

Failing that you could write a letter, but keep it in the same format as the ESA50.
Please make sure that you use the latest Claim guides as there will have been changes to the DWP guidance since you were last assessed.

They said we completed the esa form in 2016 and as we requested a home visit it had taken a while to strange. How can they make a decision with out of date details. My husbands colitis is much worse .
