HSI 1811 (August/September 2015 Announcement)

[NashuaMatt]

I'm Vegas OS. Background is pending approval and sending in the follow up medical things I have this week (which they'll hopefully accept).

Just got the EOD email . Start August 7th. Did one stop Vegas .

What was your EOD and duty location? They didn't contact you by phone at all?

Any OS applicants applying to the Lateral?

Has anyone been medically cleared since sending in the requested additional cardiologist exams? I just turned mine in on Thursday, but I'm curious on what the timeline is after doing so to get cleared.

so the 2015 announcement had no poly. The 2016 announcement stated "MAY BE REQUIRED TO PASS A POLY". Any insight on whether or not they will actually go through with the poly or not? I heard through the grape vine at my office (ICE) that they are still considering it before making the final decision. any info helps. thanks fellas

You must be terrified of it. You have only asked twelve times.

How many polygraphs have you taken? I have taken 5.

I passed 4 and failed 1. My answers did not change. Until I failed that polygraph, I foolishly believed that it was a legitimate piece of equipment. After my failure my eyes were opened to the absolute garbage that is the polygraph.

I hear that 65%+ of all people who take the polygraph for Border Patrol fail. I have heard stories of current police officers, honorable military veterans, etc. all failing. There are even several former Border Patrol Agents who failed the polygraph when the sought reinstatement.

Nothing will convince me that 65-70% of all applicants, ones who could pass the background investigation, have clean criminal histories, strong work histories, strong financial histories, etc, are all liars who have super secret hidden pasts.

Anybody else waiting on final EOD? If we don't get them til next week, that doesn't give us much time for 2 weeks notice...but then again, o well, right?

I wish, I just turned in the follow up medical, so I'm still waiting to hear back on that. Any idea how long that takes? Hopefully you'll get your final EOD soon. When is the class date?

A lot of people have been saying about 3 weeks. But I've heard some other people saying it's been 4 weeks and they have not heard anything.

I just received notification that I have to take a third urinalysis... Geezalou... I wonder if I'm drinking too much water (I drink a lot of water) and it's diluting the tests or if the collecting business is just that bad with the samples. I know several of us from the San Antonio OS had to repeat due to their mistake, but has anyone had to repeat a third time?
