Hi

sorry to bombard in your conversation - Corrine mentioned about the CRB thing and the PA not having to be cleared.

My situation - i have had an assement put in place already and am recieving the money at the moment for the direct payments, but i am waiting for my mum, and my partners dad's CRB's to be cleared (they have already been done for their current emplyment) so just wonderd whether i could start paying them now or do i have to wait for the CRBs to be cleared?

Thanks

Usually a CRB check is valid for a set amout of time.
Take a copy of the CRB check for your records along with receipts etc and this should be fine

whether it is different for children as m8s son is now over 18 but we were told same thing and matt is still under child services, that if we had somebody found for us to be a PA they would need to be crb checked but if we used our own then it was up to us if we trusted the person enough not to need a crb (was going to use brother in law). considering how long it can take for the check you would have to give the money back lol it runs from April to April here. the person who friend uses has a crb check for her job but hasnt had a seperate one done to be friends sons PA as she is a friend.
