DBS turnaround time, Follow Ups and Results

Created by Sarah, Modified on Tue, 12 Aug at 4:24 PM by Sarah

Basic DBS 

Basic DBS have a 14 day TAT - though results are often returned more quickly than this, often the same day! If the result is not present after 14 days have passed, the candidate can call the DBS on 0300 0200 190, quoting their e-reference number, and ask for an update. 

Basic DBS have 4 stages, and EBC will update the check when it passes to the next stage.
