Credit checks

Options
Good morning!
We have a mortgage application in with Clydesdale bank and on my credit report this morning I have noticed they have done a search for anti money laundering - is this normal? What other checks will they do?
Sorry I don’t have a clue about the whole process.
Thanks

    Normal - they will do credit and ID checks.

    Have a read of the paperwork you would of received, they will probably state on there that they will carry out credit checks etc.
  • Hiya, my boyfriend and I are going through with a mortgage application with Clydesdale and noticed the same thing on our reports so hopefully that’s normal!
    Can I just check how your mortgage application went? We have just had the valuation results back and are soooo nervous and not sure how long things take or what can happen from now!!
    Thanks :)
