I found a downloadable form on there, but they call it a "SA1 SUBJECT ACCESS" form and make no mention of a "PCC" form.. Are they the same.??? > Thanks for the link to the s.yorks police web site..

Found a reason on the West Yorks website "The subject Access form does not provide you with a Certificate of Good Conduct or a Police Clearance Cert. However in our experiance foreign embassies will accept a SUBJECT ACCESS reply in the absence of such a facility in the UK." STEPHEN > Thanks for the link to the s.yorks police web site..

Download that one and fill it in and you'll be fine (trust me, I used to do the job!!) :) > Thats what you need, the subject access form. Download that one and > fill it in and you'll be fine (trust me, I used to do the job!!) :) That's the right form, we downloaded it and sent it last week. We got an acknowledgement/receipt back within a couple of days informing us that the application will be processed from New Scotland Yard and gave us a date that we should receive our check by.

They are legally obliged to respond within 40 days. 2. For Australia, police checks are normally valid for 12 months.

I told them I hadn't received it so they said they'd look in to it. I'm still waiting, what do you suggest I do? I don't know if it makes a difference but my name is incredibly common. > 1.

Kind regards, Mark > How long do these type of checks usually take to be processed? > > Kind Regards, > Mark > > p.s. do these police checks have an expiry date? We got our checks back within 9 days (including the day we posted it) so we did well really considering our acknowledgement said it may take up to 40 days to process. Couldn't tell you if they have an expiry date, just sent ours straight off to our Agent.

Thanks chaps, for Thames Valley its http://www.thamesvalley.police.uk/about/pdf/subject_access_pack.pdf However I do have another point, 10 years of addresses? credit check? etc.? > Thanks chaps, for Thames Valley its > > http://www.thamesvalley.police.uk/about/pdf/subject_access_pack.pdf > > However I do have another point, 10 years of addresses? credit > check? etc.? The police do not do credit checks, the form is for checking criminal records. The idea of 10 years of addresses is to help them out - if they find someone with a similar name to youes they can use the addresses for elimination purposes. > The police do not do credit checks, the form is for checking criminal > records.

Thanks Pollyana, i guess i should be pleased my name is not John Smith!! > Thanks Pollyana, i guess i should be pleased my name is not > John Smith!! You wouldn't believe how much the heart sinks when you get a form when a name like that on it!!! Checking the Esmerelda Dingbats of this world is far more enjoyable!! (no offence to any John Smiths out there, but there are several thousand of them on the compiter and it makes for a very long morning!!!) > You wouldn't believe how much the heart sinks when you get a form when > a name like that on it!!! > Checking the Esmerelda Dingbats of this world is far more enjoyable!! > (no offence to any John Smiths out there, but there are several > thousand of them on the compiter and it makes for a very long > morning!!!) So I should change my name to Esmerelda Dingbat, is that what you're saying. Do I need to wear a frock too!! > So I should change my name to Esmerelda Dingbat, is that what > you're saying. > > Do I need to wear a frock too!! woukld like to see the frock for laughing puposes. If I get my Police checks done now then when I put in my application in 11 months time they will be still valid? cheers Lace :) > woukld like to see the frock for laughing puposes. > If I get my Police checks done now then when I put in my application > in 11 months time they will be still valid? > cheers Lace :) I'm guessing here, based on your "location" - if you come under Greater Manchester police you need this link http://www.gmp.police.uk/foi/data_protection/subject_access.asp and it looks like their form is not online - so I don't know the number, as each force has its own. Its a Subject Access check under the Data Protection Act, and it will say that they are going to check the Police National Computer records - but yes, 2 forms of ID is usual, and ?10. They will be valid for 12 months, BUT your entry date is usually linked to your police check. so you usually only have 12 months to enter from the date of the check. If you're not in Manchester, let me know!! > I'm guessing here, based on your "location" - if you come under > Greater Manchester police you need this link [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > If you're not in Manchester, let me know!! Hi Pollyanna, I am in Manchester. I was going to get the police checks early and the Medicals with it. I was going to get the number off the form when it comes back with the recipt then I was going to front load the stuff. I am just trying to get everything in the pipe line so I miss nothing (it's called panicking lol). cheers for that. If they don't have a form I will go to the police station and get one. thanks Lace :) > Thats what you need, the subject access form.

The one where you send ?10.00 and two forms of ID. cheers Lace :) > Thats what you need, the subject access form. Download that one and > fill it in and you'll be fine (trust me, I used to do the job!!) :) Yeah pollyana you have to e-mail them for it. Thanks for the link cheers Lace :) |
