I just finished my medical and got invited to the VBT/interview. Doing that in about a month. I know it has been covered somewhere but I can't find it here, the letter says that the VBT counts as the interview, but I'm pretty sure I remember reading that we still have both, and to just ignore that part of the letter. Can someone clarify please?
Thanks!

What is the average wait for receiving a offer for SWB? Anyone else in the same boat?
Maybe you could try staying local (where you are now) in a cheap rental and get any type of job just to pay the bills for now. Stay in the reserves to keep up your health insurance and make some extra drill cash too. I have seen people getting on the job in less than one year from the test for SWB. Being in the military should help you and I believe they are giving interim background clearances for SWB locations to speed things up.
Its a good job, its worth a little sacrifice. Good luckCBPO

They need plenty of people in the Swb. I took san ysidro but they offered me several different ports. My score was 100 w/ vet points so that could have something to do with it. I got the offer before I even knew my bg had cleared. In fact it cleared the next day. My process took approximately 7 mo. From beginning to end.
