[Fer]

So today they call me and send me an email because one of the forms was missing! I ask if that will slow down my BI and they said , no your BI show that is complete all I need to do is send that form for them to send my papers to TSU! Hopefully yours is done too.

Forgive me if you already posted this info but when did you meet with your BI?

Forgive me if you already posted this info but when did you meet with your BI?

Met my investigator at the end of march this year. I took my test in July 2011, me drug test 2 weeks ago, and was told by them that my BI was clear today. Didn't reflect in Cass just because I was missing a paper that I submit today.. And this is what they wrote me today.

"Thank you; I have received your document.
*
Yes, your BI is now cleared. Your file will be referred to the Training and Scheduling Unit and they will contact you when a funded position is available"

So hopefully they call me soon.

Congrats on making it through. Unfortunately you are further ahead of me than it sounded. I still have not even had my initial contact with the BI. Been waiting for that for 4 months now. Let us all know what they offer you when they call

Really? I though u met your investigator too. I will post it here as soon as I get the call. Hopefully I get a good station.

nope not yet, but it leads me to wonder. I kept hearing about the directive to do the easy BI's fast and let the more complicated ones sit and wait. Can anyone comment if that was/is still a policy? If so it would explain my hold up, being former military and current fed employee i have lived 10 places in the last 10 years and had quite a few short term jobs after getting out before settling into my current fed position.
Did you have a simple background? Just looking to see if this thought process makes sense or not?

Does anyone on here know if a CBPO position "stops the clock" for other federal LE age 37 requirements?

For those that have taken the poly, what do you recommend wearing? I hear it is a long process and you want to be comfortable.

I didn't have a easy one, I work in Kuwait as a contractor and live off post in Kuwait city, I did that for 4 years. And I move a lot like you too. I think u should call and ask if everything is ok and if your BI is moving along, i did that and that's when they told me it clear today.

I noticed you reapplied under march 2012 while in process for 2011. I found out that everone that applied in 2012a will have to take a poly. They dont move too fast for southeast. Mine just got scheduled for aug 8. That could be your hold up

Thank you guys hopefully I will get the call in Aug. so I be in fletc by end Sep or Oct.. :-)

FER, what's your geo region?

hmm could be, but i havnt received a TSL for the 12-1 announcement for SE yet so i am still in process for SWB. I did tell MHC that i would prefer the SE over SWB at one point but i highly doubt they are nice enough to drag out my process to make it last long enough that they reach my 93 for the southeast and send me a new SE TSL. Thanks all for the advice and help i think i am going to have to call IA and see what is the situation

Ya I definetly would it's a long long time to wait to meet your investigator. Give them a call tomorrow and see what's the hold up.

FER, what's your geo region?

Is SWB!
