Title: criminal record in UK
Post by: snowtop on May 04, 2016, 13:45:22 PM
I have just got a letter from Mugla saying that |I need to get proof from UK that I do not have a criminal record there.
1)  Where can I get this info from?
2) Can I do it online?
3) Has anyone else had to do this
4) this is for my LTRP.
Thanks in advance.

Pay for a DBS check online it used to be called a CRB. There are some organisations that will do it, for a charge.  Usually you can go to your local council and get it done. Takes weeks to come through. Various proofs needed, original birth certificate, passport,etc

You can't request a DBS check to be provided for yourself so you have to pay a fee to a specialist company to request one for you.

You can contact DBS customer services for more information:

customerservices@dbs.gsi.gov.uk

Telephone: 0300 0200 190

Hello,
Here is two web site giving criminal records documents
You need to bring criminal records papers apostil stamped.

1-
https://crbdirect.org.uk/
This web site will reject your request if you are living out of UK

2-
www.acro.police.uk
This web site accepts your online request but asking for adress documents from Turkey

I want to remind you again. You need to bring this document appostil stamped. you will have it translated and notarized here in Turkey and give it to Muğla Immigration Office.

On the letter send to LTRP applicants written that you have 6 months to complete this process.

Regards.

Inspector

They charge £65 and utilise Disclosure Scotland (a Scottish government agency) who actually only charge £25 for the same service.  The "Fast Track" service, which cost an extra tenner, is NOT fast tracked within Disclosure Scotland.

You can apply direct here: https://www.disclosurescotland.co.uk/basicdisclosureonline/index.htm (https://www.disclosurescotland.co.uk/basicdisclosureonline/index.htm)

Alternatively, use the other link Inspector posted, its an official site not an agency.

Did Acro also get it apostled? Did you do it in uk or in Turkey.

Dıd not need ıt apostled (ıts a Polıce document) just translated also told by translator we may not need ıt at all as we have no UK address  . He also said we should wait till we have done on line applıcatıon and see what documents the GOC ask for.

The letter I received to day from Mugla says criminal record to be apostled. I have received Long term residency but must get criminal record report from UK  apostled and then translated and notorised within six months.

 Yes I agree Google,
It's written as ''altı (6) ay içinde vatandaşı olduğunuz ülke makamınızdan adli sicil kaydınızın alınarak Apostille şerhli ve Türkçe tercümesinin noter onaylı ''
Means ''  In six months criminal records document with apostille stamped taranslated and notarized must be provided''
Translation and notarization is done here in Turkey after the apostille.

I applied for my Long term residency in November 2015  that's 10 months before my blue book visa run out in September this year - this has solved the problem of my old residency running out before I receive long term residency.

I had my LTR  card delivered in October, but are they asking everybody with an LTR card to provide a Criminal Record Certificate, or if you have the card already, will you be exempt  form this.
