I can’t remember my 5-year address history, what do I do?

Providing 5 years’ worth of addresses is a minimum requirement for the Enhanced DBS check. You don’t need to provide the exact date, but month and year is required. 


If you provide inaccurate information, it could cause your check to be delayed or withdrawn. 


If you have had no fixed abode, an overseas address or an unusual living situation, you can find guidance here.
