Thanks for that Pigdog. They sent me a link and vetting form but that seems to apply for New Zealand applicants. I'm in Hamilton next week from the 24th-28th. Applying for a post at Waikeria

It's the same form if your NZ, UK or any where. We got confused on that too. We started at Spring Hill then transferred to Otago.

Corrections were fine with my enhanced disclosure from police Scotland. I'm sure they will take that aswell. Use it for both?

The only thing I'm not sure about regarding the enhanced disclosure form is that you as individual can't ask for one yourself,it has to be the organisation requesting one i.e... in this case New Zealand corrections. So how does that work as their New Zealand I thought crb checks were for U.K. Based organisations.

Yes you can. Apply for a basic disclosure? https://www.mygov.scot/basic-disclos...ic-disclosure/
I applied for a enhanced one because I am already a member. If they want the full thing then maybe you will need the acro one?

I needed one or both the job and the visa. Check the visa requirements for your family. It should state what they require.

If you have lived in another country for a 12 month or more period, then you will need a police check for that country also.
