Davy - 2 Dec 20 1:11 AM
I got conditional caution for these offences:
  • Harassment without violence
  • Send letter / communication / article conveying indecent / offensive message
I looked through the list at least 5 times very carefully and I couldn't find my offence in this list: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dbs-list-of-offences-that-will-never-be-filtered-from-a-criminal-record-check

Will it be filtered after 6 years?

You don't mention whether you were under or over 18 at the time.

Assuming you are over 18, then they will be filtered after 6 years. This is due to a change made last week - prior to that, if you had more than one conviction none could be filtered. Now they are each treated independently.

There are two exceptions to the above I am aware of - some jobs are excluded from filtering (joining the police for example) and if you want a shotgun/firearms licence
