sfo

[friscoplayrsf]

Hey frisco I told them I would take the PFT2 in Sac, but I'm still waiting for them to call and schedule... They didn't Offer SF so I take it you'll have to go up to Sac as well?... Let me know if they call you.

Ill be taking it in sac also. Its gonna be a hot pft2

[CBPO11]

First of all CONGRATS too ALL who have been called. Good luck with your PFT2

Did all of you have a polygraph done? And were you all clear (all green check marks) on CASS before The EOD CALL?

seeOH

I did not have to take a polygraph and my CASS was clear when I was called, but that may just be timing. I think if your name comes up and you have something pending they still inform you, but I could be wrong about that.

Yoda, Frisco, CBPO11...

aLL green check marks before the call, no poly, my background expires in sept. so they called before i needed update.

I took the VBT/SI a few days ago and I don't feel too confident about it.

My question is, I passed the Border Patrol interview and right now they are doing my background investigation. If I do not pass my CBP VBT/SI, will that affect my BP hiring process or have any bearing on my BP application?

Not at all.
I can tell you that no one feels confident after taking the VBT, but if you used common sense you'll be fine.

BIG congrats for Yoda!!! and everyone else that got "THE CALL"
Hopefully my processes is moving along. BI expried in Feb. turned in my e-qip and they received it on May, so hopefully they call me to get my 2nd BI over with and get back into TSU.

If they call while you are training for BOP what would be your move. Stay with BOP or leave and go for CBP?

Yeah I would leave for CBP, if and when I pass the PFT2 and they give me a definite EOD. Journeyman for BOP is GL 7!, and now GS 12 for CBP. That is a huge difference. And making 13 in CBP would probably be easier than making a 9 in BOP. I also think I would like the CBP job more and the airport is a much closer commute than the detention center.

Hey Frisco guess what..... We'll be there together! Got the call this AM for Orlando....
4 years in the making!......FINALLY

Hot damn. Hell must be freezing over!

[yoda]

Hot damn. Hell must be freezing over!

It might just be brother.... This is a weird feeling for me, really never thought this day would finally come after so much BS and the terrible wait!...
