[S.O.S.]

Hello,

I've also just received access to post on the forum. Have been following it for a few weeks. I included my timeline so far. I have my PFT1 coming up next Friday. If all goes well, I have my interview scheduled for 9/4/12.

Hey, Welcome! I am new here too. you should practice all parts (with a stop watch if possible), and for the second part of the PFT1: the step test, the Audio Test file from CBP website is very helpful for me as it counts every steps out for you for 5 mins.)!! Good luck on your PFT1 !!

I've been reading everyone's post for a couple of weeks now and I finally got validated to post. Im getting anxious to hear anything else since it seemed like my process was moving along fairly quickly but now waiting for drug test and background. I'd love to see if any other female out there is done with the process and how long it took them...

hello,
i dont have exact dates because i haven't taken the time to write it all down
I took the test in SD in july 2011. I received my NOR in aug 2011 I took PFT1 in Dec 2011. The VBT was in January. I had vision correction in March so I had to wait until June for my medical to clear. I Took the polygraph twice/ once in MAy thay then again in June. I met with the background Investigator on Aug 5
I received "the call" on August 7 i believe. I took PFT2 on August 15. Received the final offer August 16 ....you are moving along way faster than I did..congrats

There is Eastlake Community which is about 10 min away from San Ysidro. It is part of the city of Chula Vista but in reality it should be a city of its own. It was voted San Diego's best community 4 years in a row. Also there is Otay Ranch which is right next to Eastlake and is also growing rapidly. Otay ranch features nice Spanish architecture. The Eastlake/Otay Ranch areas are nice, quiet, people are friendly, they mind their own business. Lol can you tell I don't want to leave???

LOL yeah...thanks for the info I will keep that in mind

Hello,
Thanks for your input. I'm interested in download the audio file to practice my steps a bit more but can't seem to locate it on the CBP website. Do you have an idea of where it's located? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

My best time is 13:35 Even with a lot of adrenaline, I know that I can't reach that time.
