Hi, I have done a lot of searching Oon this forum and am now banging my head against the wall! There seems to be a lot of conflicting thoughts/advice.
I fully understand the DR10 endorsement is on my license for 11 years, that is not the issue.
Question:- When does a DD conviction become spent when applying for jobs that DO NOT REQUIRE THE ENHANCED LEVEL SEARCH (or whatever it's called)?
IE, Applying for a job that is not exempt from The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act. (I am not applying for a finance job, legal job, working with vulnerable people etc, just a 'normal' run of the mill job! eg a shopworker)
Some replies to other questions on this matter also mention something like "if you were fined by a court then the conviction is spent after 5 years"
What if you were not actually fined and only had costs and a victim surcharge, does this change anything or do they count as fines also?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
(ps contacted NACRO just after my disqualification and they gave me wrong advice as to when my ban was finished so, I cannot trust them with this question)
EDIT
Just found out on your website that a community order puts me in the 5 year until spent bracket anyway, BUGGER!
