Juvenile Caution & FAC Application

[Mastiff 7]

Quick couple of questions if you don't mind:

 

Would a juvenile caution affect a FAC application?

 

Would you mention such a caution on an application?

 

Cheers,

Yes... Everything must be put down. If they think your holding back information then they will just turn you down.

just write it down when you apply and im sure your flo will bring it up in your interview. i got a caution a year or so before i apply for my fac. i wrote it down and the flo spoke to me about it. it was for a bust up in town when drunk on a night out.

 

i told him the full story and he was happy with that. he just said when you are a fac holder you have to think. if you get in trouble again that will be the end of your fac.

 

if you dont write it down and he comes for interview he will then bring it up. mind yours was a time ago by the sound of it. just tell him kids will be kids. he will see from the record you havent been in trouble since then

As said. The caution should not be a problem but tell them about it. If they catch you trying to hide anything they will f**k you up all over the landscape.

 

Atb, tell the truth bro.

I think the form says that a caution counts as a conviction for these purposes.

 

As to whether it will affect your application - depends what it's for, how long ago it was, etc. On balance, it probably won't. In short, they have to judge your application on your cirsumstances as they exist at present. If there is nothing about your life as it is now which would make you an unsuitable person then there aren't really any grounds to refuse it.

This is a very, very good point. I'm sure that quite a lot of people get into stupid dust-up's because they know they have not much to lose. I'm quite convinced that not only are FAC/SGC holders more responsible from the outset but become even more so because they have FAC's/SGC's. It's a stabalising influence, if you will.

Thanks again,
