Has anyone who tested in July-August 2011 for the Southeast geographic area received a TO yet? I tested in Laredo 8/10 received my NOR on 8/30 (109% with 10-point disabled vet points), and haven't heard anything yet.

You applied for a vacancy announcement that stated "Few vacancies". I applied in Nov. 2010 for an announcement that said the same. I scored a 100 and here I am 10 months later and still waiting. You might have a little longer to wait, there aren't too many vacancies in the southeast, there is a need for the new airport in Atlanta but you have to understand that they've already given out a ton of initial offers for GA. Give it some time, be patient, realistically even with your score you could wait a year for an offer. If the job is that important I would change your geo location to the SWB.

Thanks for the info. I have no problem waiting, as I am on the SWB right now and itching to get away from it!

Well, grab some popcorn and kool aid, it might be a while for the rest of us non-swb folks.

Anybody else on here in the running for a Border Patrol Agent position?

I got my TO from CBPO 5 weeks ago, so all my paperwork has already been submitted. Will I need to redo all of the same forms again for BPA? Yes, some are slightly different, but most are the exact same as CBPO. Plus things like official transcripts and stuff.

I was just going to call tomorrow to see if I can avoid re-doing all of that paperwork.

Thanks.

Pre-employment forms went green this morning. Funny because I e-mailed them about it on Tuesday, and they said they can't confirm them. Now, on Thursday they're ok'ed. :P

And my case is in the "security office" what does that mean? Have I been assigned an BI?

I guess the PD got a new car here in ATL...

^^Interesting. I was not told my times/scores. Just completed all the tests. I know i did 31 push ups, 29 sit ups, 14 markers on the side step, and completed the step test, I just don't know my time for the lift test. I wonder if I can call and ask.. I still have to go back in 2 days to show the skin area where the TB test was administered

Well, sounds like you passed as long as you did the lift/lower in under a minute...

I'm wondering if CASS has been abandoned. I don't recall any update news delivery on here in a while. Mine certainly hasn't.

Edit: I reread to find that someone got an update this morning only a few posts above here.

I noticed a couple of updates today. My pre-employment and VBT/SI went green, a couple of days ago they were blue. CASS is still active, but there does seem to be the kind of processing lag you'd expect with any similar system.

you have no choice but to quit as you will be at eod for 2 weeks, unless you take leave. anything can happen at any point in your employment with cbpo so that is up to you.

yes you are waiting on the bi to contact you and depending on where you are going it will clear quicker than most. at least that is whats been happening letely. anything can change at anytime.
