Do you consider those on the shelf those who are post poly and medical just waiting on the call?

It's best to not get all worked up about what might be or what might not be. Live your life, advance yourself, pretend like this isn't going to happen because it might not. You need to be cool headed and patient now. There are more retiring but the numbers need to collected and crunched. The federal budget, or lack of, has an impact too. I could have gotten my med clearance or potentially been in the academy if it weren't for OPM stiff arming my April 15 application. Oh well though it probably added 10 months or more, not just the six it took to reapply in October. Breathe, relax, and just do well where you work now.

1) You get offered a class date (usually within 2 years).
2) A portion of your application packet expires, and you are asked to re-take that portion (usually 2-3 years)
3) Everything expires and they call you and ask if you want to re-apply 3 or 4 years later. (This happened to me)
4) Everything expires and you are told, "Sorry, your vacancy announcement was cancelled."
