Hi there
I have been to my local constabulary and they have given me a form but I'm not sure if I need a 'police certificate' which is for 'requests for immigration purposes' or just the normal disclosure stating that I have no criminal offences which is the one saying 'this is not for employment purposes'...also the fee is 拢10..does that sound about right?
Thanks

Hi meland mike....

It's called a CRB check which we got before leaving the UK, and it was about 拢10 ( if I remember correctly) and more ( about 拢30) if you wanted it express delivery!

Eventually though when we applied, it wasn't even looked at. But I suppose it depends on route you take ( married to a Mauritian vs expats).

Hope that helps. PM me if you want more info.

Hi Mel and Mike,

It is the one marked "not for employment purposes" that you need.聽 A neighbour of mine in Ireland was a Detective and he got ours so I did n't have to pay.聽 It is only valid for three months from the issue date.聽 Good luck.

Steph.
