CRB times

So has anyone got any experience on how long CRB's usually take to complete?
I've had a few in the past. Last year it took a few months (my current one then was 8-ish months old), then this year it only took 2 weeks (current one being 6-7 months old). I have a new job which requires a new CRB I hope I'm not waiting too long.

I gave mine to the HR department on a Friday. Checked the CRB website on the next Tuesday to check that they'd sent it in and it already said it had been sent back to me. I received it on the Thursday. Employer received their copy after me.0

excellent. how many addresses did they need to check I've had about 8 in the 5 years they ask for lol0

I had two addresses. They are trying to do them more quickly now in general so it shouldn't take weeks or months.0

it depends which CRB, they were listed somewhere but i can't remember which site. The enhanced take something like 6 - 8 weeks where standard are faster.0

Well the paperwork came through today and it's an enhanced check. An information sheet which they sent with it says: Enchanced CRB checks - 90"% in 28 days.0

Just be sure to write the reference number down to keep and then you check its progress.0

Just had an enhanced CRB - took the paperwork in on the Thursday before the bank holiday, had the CRB letter on the Tuesday after the bank holiday! Only one address though.0
