Hey everyone! I am new to the forums although I have been following them for a little while now. I contacted MHC the other day becuase I had not recieved a new NOR when I changed Geo and the woman on the phone said that I had been pushed up to staffing and should be getting my TSL1 & 2. She also said that they already had dates in the system for me for a lot of my other things. Anyone else been kind of sparatically thrown into a lot of this. Seems a lot like the Army. "Hurry up and Wait"

we all have in some way lol!.. whats your geo pref?

I have seen some people, even on this forum, go through practically the whole process in 2 1/2 to 3 months. I feel like this is different for everyone as I am sure there are a plethora of things that play a huge factor in all of this.

I agree at least six months. I know people get worried after a couple months. In my second background investigation, i met my investigator on 6/6/11. So it took a year for me to find out what was going on. I laugh when I read posts where people just met their bi two or three months ago and ask should they call. So I will say call to check if it has been at least six months, then after that call.

this is my case, 6 months already. It is time to call.

Prayer of Jabez
And Jabez made a prayer to the God of Israel, saying, If only you would truly give me a blessing, and make wider the limits of my land, and let your hand be with me, and keep me from evil, so that I may not be troubled by it! And God gave him his desire.

Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone could answer a question for me. I noticed that in the California area the hiring has been open for CBP. I am currently going through the hiring process with Border Patrol and have done everything except the drug test. I was wondering if the process transfers over? Since it is both DHS I thought it might?

Listen that's out of your hands at this point all you can do is pray and leave it up to the man upstairs he is the only one that can judge you

Anyone who is offered Otay Mesa from MHC is going to cargo. Otay Mesa passenger falls under San Ysidro and you won't know if you're assigned OTM passenger or SYS until you've finished with your 34 week post academy training. Officers under San Ysidro bid for positions at OTM passenger and SYS based on seniority, but OTM cargo falls under a totally different category.
