Are we talking about a CRB Clearance (enhanced or otherwise)?

@jimbuna

no, subject access check of the police national computer. i sent the relevant docs to a buddy in london and asked him to hand them in at a police station, as i was told it would be ok over the phone. of course, no one wanted to sign for the papers ("more than my jobs worth, mate" etc.), so i mailed them in. called after about a week (since receipt is supposed to be mailed back immediately) and of course, "we haven't received anything."

i'm sitting around sucking my thumb because it's the last thing i need before getting a work permit.

I'm afraid access to the PNC is STRICTLY MONITORED, 5 STAGED PASWWORD/CODE PROTECTED.....and fully traceable.

Your best bet/option would be to send again by registered post I'm afraid.

If your able to get through to the actual section that perform the electronic interrogations (civilian staff) you can always try the soft soap method.

I'm afraid that's all I can suggest.
