What other documents can be accepted by the Archdiocese as evidence that I have already undergone a check?

The only document/email notification that is acceptable is a current Department of Human Services (DHS) Working with Children Email outcome notification or DHS Certificate of Interrogation

Whilst this document is NOT specifically a Catholic Clearance, it is evidence that you have undertaken a Working with Children Check with DHS.

If you have a DHS Working with children check clearance, it should be presented to the Authorised Personnel at the location that you wish to provide service to. A copy of the DHS WWCC will be required to be forwarded to Safeguarding Operations (incorporating SAVA). The clearance will then be checked and assessed to determine whether a Catholic Clearance is appropriate based on the actual content of the document and the current status of the clearance issued by DHS.

Holder of this type of clearance is also required to obtain a Catholic Screening Outcome Letter/card.
