When you have to mail off the information to London to get your police certificate, does anyone know who to make the check payable to? Would it be the Metropolitan Police Department? Any help would be appreciated...thank you

If you live or lived in the metropolitan police area of London there is a form you can download , but this has to be returned by surface mail ,they do not have the facility for e-filing ...more information can be had from this web link

www.met.police.uk/dataprotection/forms.htm#b

There is a fee of £10.00 sterling for this background check.

However I have been informed that a background check given by yourself is not required as the biometrics does this for you.

I an sure other VJers will have the correct procedures for you , this excellent site has a vast knowledge of info from people all over the world who have i am sure gone through this hurdle.
