Sia badge

I applied on the 28th of this month and now all the steps are completed. Only right to work checks in progress. Got my crb checks this morning. How long will it take for the badge to arrive?

    There is a huge backlog, particularly for SIA which is more popular than CCTV. I was just about to contact my MP when mine arrived. I believe you can get an LDN after you pass your training and are waiting for the badge which should be enough to get you work
