eVetting – Step by Step Guide

Step 1

• The applicant (vetting subject) completes the IAWA eVetting Invitation & ID Validation Form.
• The applicant presents this form, along with their original identification documents, to their Club Children's Officer (CCO) or another IAWA appointed validator.
• The CCO/validator checks the original documents, takes photocopies, signs them, and completes the ID Validation section of the form.
• The signed form and photocopied ID are posted to:
  IAWA Garda Vetting Unit
  15 The Haven, Tower Cross
  Mornington, Co. Meath, A92 H9Y2

Step 2

• Once received, the IAWA processes the form and submits it to the Garda National Vetting Bureau (GNVB).
• The GNVB emails the applicant a link to the online eVetting Application Form.
• This email is valid for 30 days. If you do not respond within this period, it will expire, and you will need to restart the process from the start.

Step 3

• The applicant completes and submits the online eVetting Application Form.

Step 4

• The IAWA Liaison Person reviews the completed application and forwards it to the GNVB for processing.

Step 5
