This will need to be initiated via your County FA (however you will need to use a different email address to the one on your current FAN)

This will be done the same as initiating a DBS for an official. The applicant will need to select the correct role type [paid workforce] within the application. The Terms & Conditions confirm that it is the responsibility of the applicant to select the correct role.

There is no option to Opt-out of self-verification, however if the applicant does not meet the requirements for documentation, then they will automatically go through the traditional verification process
