Police Check

Published

Hie everyone

I am planning on applying for a police check for my immigration processing. But what I am wondering is how long is a police check valid for? Coz I don't want to do it too soon and by the time I go for an interview maybe it will be expired.

Any input much appreciated.

Thanks LT

As far as I am aware 12 months and when applying in the UK average is 40 days from applying to receiving. Also don't forget you will need one for every country lived in longer than 6 months

Thanks a lot for the reply and pointing out about the other countries lived in for more than 6months.

By the countries lived in does it give time frame for instance if you left your country 20 years ago.

If I remember it asks countries lived in from the age of 18 for longer than 6 months so if more than 20 years ago then the answer would be yes you would still need one
