Verification of Identification:
* It is the Coordinators’ responsibility to verify the forms of ID produced and ensure that all information is full and correct in every aspect. 
* At a minimum one form of visual and one form of address ID must be verified. 
* All forms of ID verified must be originals and not photocopies.
* All forms of ID must be valid. Address ID must be valid within 3 months.
* Where the applicant cannot produced visual ID, CRBS will accept a endorsed passport size photograph and a letter signed and dated by Minster, Session Clerk etc which states “ I certify that (name of applicant) residing at (enter full address) has been known to myself for (enter duration of time)”. The letter should accompany the Disclosure Scotland application and be forwarded to the Safeguarding Office. We suggest that the photograph and a photocopy of the letter should be kept by the Coordinator so that a paper trail is available.
