We paid 10 GBP each last year for ours and, from memory, got them back within a week or two.

Evening All,

Police checks are £35 for standard service (returned within 10 days), £70 for premium service (returned within 2 days) and £5 for each additional copy

Prices are each person and you HAVE to get them via Association of Chief Police Officers - your local station do not do them, (google ACPO and go to "police certificates" at the bottom left of their home page).

Dont forget the signed photos!

Got mine back in about a week.

If you've onlt paid £10 i suspect it'll be returned and slow your process.

Hope that helps.

We just got mine and OH's back yesterday. We paid GBP10 but it was the 40 day service. If you want the 10 day service you go a different route and pay GBP35 etc as per previous poster's message.
Our's did take a looong time but luckily we were in no rush and preferred to save the money.

This is the link for the GBP10 form.

Due to type of employment I had 4 CRB checks for various health autorities in one year these cost £36 and took anything from 3 weeks to 14 weeks depending on the time of year, May, June July being the quickest, but the one police check I had cost £10 and had in back in just over a week.

This is from the NZ immigration site -
