With this in mind, the DBS and Care Check would like to remind clients about the dangers of stockpiling applications. A large number of stockpiled applications has the potential to overload the DBS' and Police Forces operations departments resulting in longer timescales for DBS Checks to be processed. Therefore we politely ask if clients could please ensure they carry on to process their applications as normal up to the 1st October.
We will be sending you another message closer to the time to remind you of the fee change, and to inform you of steps Care Check need to take to implement your reduced DBS rate smoothly.
If you have any queries please don't hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards
Care Check DBS Applications
