Future implications for me
Notifications OFF
Hi everyone!
just a quick one... didn't know if anyone can shed any light on this
my partner (not married but we live together) is being charged for iioc. We haven't heard from the CPS yet, the last we heard was from our local police saying they did want to take him to court and we needed to wait now for the charges to come through/court date etc. That was early December.
ive just seen a job I want to apply for which needs an enhanced DBS - does anyone know if this would affect me? I'm sure I read previously his charges would show on an enhanced check for myself - but it hasn't even gone to court at the moment - so would it show yet or not? Just wondering if there's even any point to me applying or not :(?

I believe it comes up once sentenced. But you may want to consider or check why they need an enhanced DBS. Some work contracts require staff to disclose changes in circumstances. Also these DBS checks may need to be updated every couple of years. I have background checks but I believe not enhanced.
Hi
I have enhanced DBS checks done on an annual basis. All through the period when my husband was under investigation the checks came back with no issues (2 years). He was only sentenced a few weeks ago so the issue of a new DBS check hasn't come up yet. Also, I understand that you will not be put at a disadvantage regarding your partner's crimes. In the past you could be dismissed/barred from a role by having the same address but the law was changed in 2018. The only exception is if you have children in your shared home for your work eg you are a child minder or home tutor. This is not allowed.
Hope this helps.

Thank you so much both for your answers that really helps. I hadn't really thought about re occurring DBS checks so that's obviously something I should bear in mind
the role im looking at doesn't actually involve children. So I'm hoping alm would be okay, for now at least.
does anyone know, once my partner is sentenced, would it show on a basic DBS for me - or is it just enhanced?

Won't appear on basic I believe. I think unlock.org mave an article about it. I did a Google search because I do have background checks on occasion do wanted to make sure it was ok.
Hi. I've had enhanced dbs's with my job before and after sentencing. Nothing shows up, it's not your crime.
I think many moons ago it would but luckily and rightly so things have moved on xx

We had the knock 8 weeks ago. I work in a special needs school and I had to have a risk assessment done 2 days after the knock. My husband has not been charged and denies everything. Police told me the school wouldn't be contacted but LADO felt differently. Hopefully you wont be affected in the same way. I was halfway through a job app when they took my laptop, I never completed it as am scared it will come up in any checks now.
Any one that is concerned with what might or might not come up in DBS checks I would suggest you contact unlock.org
I know they have advised others in the past who have needed enchanted dbs checks. I wouldn't want anyone to be under the illusion as to what might come up based on what happened or didn't happen to someone else.
