Hi,
The current legislation does not allow the self-employed or individuals to apply for a CRB check on themselves. In addition, parents who employ a nanny/au pair/babysitter directly cannot apply for a CRB check; however, if an agency supplies the nanny/au pair/babysitter, the agency is entitled to carry out a CRB check.
I have just had a quick search and an individual can't apply for a check off their own back.
What you could do is apply for a job that requires a CRB check.
When a check is done on you, you will receive a copy as will the employer.
Hope that helps

Go to the main police station in your area and request a criminal records check. It will cost a few dollars and make sure to bring several peices of ID with you.
This document will not say ABSOLUTELY that you do not have a criminal record but it will say that there is no criminal record shown in their system. (Unless of course you have a criminal record.) I know where I live (Canada) my local police record check will show any convictions in Canada and I believe it would be similar in most places.

You fill out this form called a Criminal Records Background (not too sure of what the B stands for!) (CRB) Check. Its usually given to you by the employer if you have to work with other people or children.
If you haven't been given one to fill out, then perhaps you don;t need it, because I don't think it can be gotten from a shop or post office or whatever. The employer should give it to you.

I had to have a criminal record check to get into nursing school, and I had to go to the Clerk of Court in the county where I lived. Go to the courthouse, and whatever you have on your record will show up. If you don't have any charges, like I did, all you will get is a paper with Clerk of Court letterhead and formatting, and the section where charges are listed will be blank. The clerk will sign it and stamp it as true and accurate.

No.
It's almost impossible to prove a negative. You can probably get a print out from the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), but not all jurisdictions report all crimes to it, so a clear from there doesn't "prove" you don't have a record in a jurisdiction that doesn't report.

You can request a CBC (criminal backgrond check) on yourself from the police just as an employer would. That would give you what you need.

You can do a criminal background check on yourself. Start with your local police department.

depends where you are, in the UK you can get a CRB or Disclosure Scotland, these can be applied for online and cost approx £35, this will prove you have not been convicted in the UK and is widely accepted by all UK employers.
