Just been advised by my WHQ that MOD90 applications are only going to support if a current SC is in place, this will be a future policy and therefore impact on time to achieve SC so we are implementing this for all applications starting 1 Jan 2020.
To achieve SC BPSS is required, this isn’t new so ok with that.
The real big fish in this was that BPSS is only valid for 5 years apparently, which is half the time an SC remains valid
