Hey guys, got a question I'm sure 1 of you will be able to help me with.
I've emigrated to Canada and my advanced card runs out in October of this year, I want to renew it as you never know what's round the corner and I may want to come home 1 day right ?
Do I have to come back to get it renewed, ie do a test again ? or is it just a case of ringing up cisrs ? Either way it'll probably cost me..........

Cheers.
 
Just renewed mine , take a HSE touch screen test and down load a form fill it in send a photo , put a cheque for £26.50 and thats it :)
 
Renewing Card

Hi Cymru,

Download the renewal form from the cisrs website, fill it in and send it off with your £26.50 .........

Might be better if you can have it sent to a UK address, though not sure about that..........and there's a section where current employer has to verify your photo.... or someone in the game who knows you.

Should be a piece of cake......... ;)
 
or the police can verify your photo , if you have a criminal record :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
 
I tried to renew mine when I was in the Middle East.
After countless e-mails to CISRS and CITB I was told you cant do the HSE test online in foreign countries so I would have to book the test then fly back to the UK and do the test.
I hardly ever go to the UK but if I did it would be to visit family and friends.
I pointed out to CISRS that they were unfairly penalizing guys who worked overseas long term. They just basically replied the CISRS cards are a UK thing so fly back or dont renew it!!!!
 
Thanks for the replies fellas, not sure what to do now ! :confused:

Sorry I didn't answer the original question matey, my mate Mick had to come back to Blighty to renew it pal, there is no special rules just cos you are abroad (sh1t i know) but thats how it is. Why don't you ask Nick if he'll pay for your flights again :laugh: Is Nick's boyfriend Darren still in the office there? makes me giggle how 2 Springboks think they can teach us brits anything at all LOL
 
Looks like you`ll be back for Christmas Chris. I might catch you in the pub
