How can I find out if my partners crime will show on my enhanced DBS? He is now living back with me.
I'm wanting to apply for another job but I can't face anyone knowing who doesn't have to x

Hi,
I think from what I have read it is the police forces decision as to whether it flags on your DBS as a note attached to the address. But I believe you can contest it if it does flag as you can't be guilty by association anymore.
I have recently had to do an enhanced DBS for work and I was terrified but nothing has flagged, but my partner is still RUI, 16 months later....
Sorry I can't be more help.

I would phone Unlock who should be able to provide more information.
It's possible it may appear in other information on an Enhanced DBS, depending on whether the person completing it feels like adding it! In theory, that should not be an issue as guilty by association no longer exists than a small handful of situations, eg childcare in the home where the offender lives.
Unlock should also able to advise what you can do if it does.

My local police force took 10 months and chose to add the investigation into my partner as an advisory on my enhanced DBS. He has not been arrested but he has been interviewed twice. On the advisory it stated that they added it because we are married and live together and that he could gain access to children through me. My work takes me into schools on rare occasions - I do not work with children directly.
I am utterly devastated. My profession means that I need a DBS, most likely enhanced, even though I don't work directly with children. I'm terrified to apply for other work. I've left him now (our relationship was absuive). I spoke to my domestic abuse support worker who thinks that provided I explain that I've left him and moved away that it shouldn't be an issue for me. She said she knew of other women who'd been in a similar situation who weren't penalised for it so long as they were open about it. But it took 10 months to come through! I was already in post when I went through the process - and it raised questions. I had to explain everything to my line manager in the end. Work has been very supportive but I find it horrendous.
I feel like a criminal and I'm so upset that his crime is attached to me. I don't even think I can appeal it. The last time I called DBS people I spoke to a bored man who insisted on repeating the same thing from a script each time I asked a question.
