All Posts. DBS Checks 28th September DBS Checks 7th September If you have committed a crime, whether recently or years ago, you may be worried about undergoing a DBS check. While all DBS checks levels will show unspent convictions, only standard and enhanced level checks will show any convictions that are spent.
But what does all of this mean? And how does it impact the likelihood of you being offered a job? Let us explain. Some crimes will stay on your criminal record indefinitely, such as violent or serious sexual crimes that impact safeguarding, or if an offence resulted in a prison sentence of more than two and a half years. However, other crimes will eventually be removed from your record in line with the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act Spent convictions are crimes that have reached this point and have been removed, whereas unspent convictions have not yet, and will still show up on a DBS check.
She has two offences but none of this information will be on her check. Unlike convictions, more than one caution or informed warning can be filtered. The offences aren't on the specified list. More than two years have passed since the caution and one year since the informed warning.
Filtering doesn't remove information about your criminal history from your record. It means certain details aren't shown on your AccessNI check. This happens when police believe a caution or conviction might be relevant to a job and should be disclosed on your certificate.
Sometimes before a disclosure certificate is issued, AccessNI will ask for an independent review of criminal record information. An independent reviewer will do the review. The reviewer isn't employed by AccessNI. If you were under 18 when convicted, the conviction is now spent and there is no information on adult offences, any criminal record information will go to an independent reviewer. They'll write and ask if you want to say anything about the disclosure of this information.
If you want to give information to the reviewer, you have 14 days to reply. AccessNI will write and tell you the independent reviewer's decision and your certificate will be issued.
If you disagree with the decision, you can raise an appeal with AccessNI and ask for the certificate to be considered by the Independent Monitor. The Independent Monitor's decision is final.
