    Default How long...?

    So we took all the forms over last month, and today our crb's come back, also I know both my references was sent back last week to cssiw, so was just wondering how long would it be until some one comes to do the house check now? I now it can take up to 14weeks but so far since taking our forms stuff has been moving good.
    I'm so impatient lol xx

    I would suggest a phone call to ofsted to ask if they have everything they need. I had to chase ss reports and waited a while, till i chased it myself. Hth

    I agree, social services took quite a while for me too. Call Ofsted and check that all the paperwork they have received has been accepted and what they are waiting for.

    I would probably ring CSSIW early next week That will give them time to log your CRB's have come back and they then may be able to give you a clearer idea of when they will come and do your pre-reg. If the CRB was all they were waiting for then it could all happen pretty quickly.
