Summary

Mistakes in DBS applications are very common. Its is your employer's responsibility to make sure they cross reference all data to ensure your DBS check is as accurate as possible. 

If the employer finds that you need to add additional information or update a mistake on your application, then they have the opportunity to reject the application and send this back to you for updating. 

What are the key mistakes people make?

  • Missing previous names
  • Missing middle names
  • Missed addresses
  • General spelling mistakes

The status below occurs after you have submitted your DBS application to your employer for the first time. This will not allow you to enter the DBS form again.

  • Log into llama.id
  • Go to your dashboard
  • Go to 'checks requested'
  • Click on your employer
  • Go to the DBS check and the status will show "Get started" again
