It's possible they will do a full financial check on you so will need all sorts of documentation. If you have been out of work for any period they will probably also require your bank statements to check that you weren't detained at her majesty's pleasure or out of the country doing bad things and so on.
You could of course ask them. I am sure they will be very open as to why they need it.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!! -

Are you having SC level clearance? When I was SC cleared (for MoJ) they check your financial situation to see if you're a potential target for bribery etc. Perhaps its part of that.Comment

yes waiting for SC to come through, I'm not one of these civil liberties types but I would of thought a standard financial background check would do, someone just mentioned to me that next they will want bank statements. I wouldn't mind but the position is low level and I could really earn more flipping burgers. Can I ask what documents you had to produce.Comment

If you don't like the idea of handing over that much info about yourself don't apply for SC roles. It goes with the territory."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

They already know the answers to most of the questions, they are checking what they know against what you tell them. If they find you were telling porkies in the application you won't get clearance.

OK it's not a random bod, but overall I think I'd trust the MoJ more than agency admin types.Comment

All you are required to present for clearance is
Email address
Proof of identity
Proof of address
You should have received a paper form which you complete and return with the above. The sponsor completes their bit and then you get a login to an online portal which is valid for 14 days. You answer the questions honestly and the application is processed. Takes less than 10 days for SC.I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).Comment
