Working with Children Checks (WWCCs) were introduced in July 2019 and are valid for 5 years. This means that checks issued in 2019 will commence expiring as of 1 July 2024. If you require a WWCC, you can update your check up to 6 months before it expires. Clearances can take up to 6 weeks to be issued to you. Due to this, we recommend applying at least 2 months before the expiry date. WWCC application forms to update your check can be found here. Please remember that any volunteer or employee without a valid WWCC must step down from their role until they obtain a valid clearance.
