What should I do if my DBS check is delayed?

If your DBS check is delayed, the first step is to contact the service provider you applied through to inquire about the status of your application. They may be able to provide information on the cause of the delay and an estimated completion time. It’s also helpful to check if all required identification documents were submitted correctly, as incomplete applications can lead to delays. If the delay is excessive, you may consider reaching out to the DBS directly for further assistance.
