CRB checks have been replaced by DBS checks. A caution will stay on the Police National Computer (PNC) forever but it will only show up on a DBS check if:
- It has been less than 6 years since the caution was issued (2 if you were 18 at the time),
or
- the offence that the caution was for is serious enough to be on the list of offences that will never be filtered.

Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) Checks were replaced by Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) Checks in 2012. Basic criminal record checks do not show cautions. Standard and Enhanced DBS checks show cautions that are not 'protected' under current legislation. A caution for an offence that is on the prescribed 'list of offences that will never be filtered from a DBS certificate' will always show on standard and enhanced DBS checks. A caution for an offence that is not on that list will become 'protected' once 6 years have passed (2 years if the person was under 18 at the time of caution). Once 'protected' it will no longer show up on a standard DBS check and will only show on an enhanced DBS check if the police believe it is relevant.

How long does a caution stay on record?
So-called "cautions" are not violations of criminal statutes and thus do not (SHOULD not) appear on your criminal record. In my experience these "cautions" are only kept in local files which are used for reference by invistigators or authorities in the jurisdiction in which you live on the possibility you may come to their attention in the future. The above is wrong. A "caution" is classed as a conviction on your criminal record. Since September 2004, as a result of the Bichard Enquiry, a caution will stay on your record indefinitely as will any conviction for a recordable offence.

Will a caution show on a CRB check?
It depends how long ago it was issued and what the caution was for: Cautions will always show up on a DBS check if they are for an offence that is included on the 'DBS list of offences that will never be filtered from a criminal record check' (available on the government website). If the caution offence is not on that list, it shows up for 6 years after the time of issue (2 years if the individual was under 18 at the time of caution). Once that 6 years (or 2) is up, the caution becomes 'protected' under current legislation and no longer has to be declared to employers. It's worth noting that for job that are not eligible for DBS checks, you only need to declare unspent convictions and do not need to mention cautions at all.

A caution will be filtered as long as it is not on the 'list of offences never to be filtered' and 6 years have passed (2 years if you were under 18 when you received the caution). On enhanced DBS checks, a filtered caution may still show if the police believe it is relevant to a recruitment decision.
