Hi @nickstar
There are 3 stages to applying for ESA:
1. Fill in the claim form (called the ESA1 or NSESAF1) - everyone has to do this.
2. Complete a 'capability for work questionnaire' with questions about your health and abilities (called ESA50) - most people have to do this.
3. Go to a medical assessment with a healthcare practitioner - most people have to do this.There can be a gap of several weeks, or even months, between each stage of the process.
When did you send off your capability for work questionnaire?

Hi,50 pages of evidence is rather a lot, i must agree with woodbine here. Sometimes less is more, with evidence, especially when it's huge amounts like that.0
