As long as the information is clearly provided and readable on the form, it doesn’t have to fit the spaces provided. If information is particularly long, fit as much as possible into the space provided and then clearly mark the remainder where there is appropriate space. Where information does overrun, try to be brief and only provide what is necessary.
