Criminal record Certificate for Skilled Worker Visa

Post by kediaster » Sun Aug 31, 2025 10:23 am

My spouse has been in the UK since 2018, and her current visa expired earlier in August while we were in India. She has re-applied for a Skilled Worker Visa while we were away. The UKVI has come back asking for Criminal Record Clearance. We had attached a DBS certificate and a police verification certificate for a period between 2020-25. They are still demanding a 10 year clearance instead of 5. The state police in India does not offer certificate for time before 5 years. Any idea how to resolve this situation as this is causing unnecessary delays. It's worse because she was already employed and will continue in the same job.
