Steps to get your DBS
Step 1. Pay for your DBS
To start your DBS checking service, please add this to your basket (above) and complete the checkout process.
Step 2. Complete your digital ID check
You will receive a link to complete this check within 24 hours of purchasing.
For your digital ID check you will need a biometric passport or ID documents. You can tell if your passport is biometric if it has a small, gold camera logo on the front of it.
For the check you will need to take a picture of yourself, and a picture of your ID document which will then be independently validated.
If you don’t have a biometric ID document, you will need to book a video meeting with a member of our team.
Our video interviews last between 5 – 10 minutes and are generally available Monday to Friday 9am till 3pm. In special circumstances we can arrange different times.
To request a video meeting, please email us at info@childcarestudies.co.uk
The interview will require you to present originals of your documents:
- Valid and up to date passport OR UK driving license (this can be a provisional one) OR Permanent Residence Card OR Biometric Residence Permit
- Two proofs of your current UK address e.g. bank statement or utility bill (this must be no older than 3 months)
Step 3: Fill in your Application form
In the same application invite link you will have a form you must fill out to complete your application.
Step 4: Register for the update service
Once the check has been completed you should subscribe to the update service, which allows you to keep up-to-date with your check for an annual subscription of £13 a year. We will supply you with an application reference number which allows you to subscribe via the online DBS update service. We advise you do this immediately once you have your application reference number and not to wait until you have your paper copy. The online DBS update service must be joined within 28 days, otherwise you will not be able to register for the service for that year and you will need to go through the DBS application process again.
