      Just accessed the newsletter, and it was still there, bottom of page 6, where it outlines the pft-2. CBP will probably be hiring even if sequestration happens, but lots less then otherwise. Attrition alone warrants hiring even when no new postings are funded.

      Hopefully, after these elections are over, congress can get its act together and pass a bill before, or even fairly close to January.

        hope everyone is doing well, been busy with a few things and lost touch with the thread but reading thru i dont think i missed much, welcome to the new people that joined the "pray n wait" line.

        i still havent heard anything about my poly and i took that 2 months ago (as of yesterday), i guess that is a good thing. not sure, keeping fingers crossed. I had to send in some additional medical info. because they didnt like my initial paperwork i sent in. so still pending but other than that keeping busy. just have the DT and BI, no meeting with yet with IA but i wasn't going to call with everything being held back until january.

        best of luck everyone

                    -At the very least 5 years... unless you find someone "crazy" enough to swap with you.
                    -You'll start at whatever GS you qualified for (5/7) with locality for the port you're assigned to. You are paid from the first day you get to your port (EOD) and that is what you will earn for the majority of your 1st year until you are cleared to work OT (approximately 2 months post academy training).

                      Today I called Minneapolis Hiring Center and respectful withdrew from application process. I'm still young, I can wait a few years and reapply to the geo I truly want, not the SWB. No disrespect to anyone living/working there already, it's just not what I'd consider fun, it'd truly beawesome career, just not my priority location, and I'd feel that would cause major issues with my work output. So with that being said I'm a 12/10 tester and now will retest, hopefully study harder and get better than a 89 and apply to where I currently live and have engrained my livelihood. So good luck and I may possibly see some of you at the next test! (if I don't already have a full time career established)

                            I have not yet received my call for a polygraph...
                            My friend who took the test AFTER me, and scored LOWER than me received a call for a polygraph though. Of course, there is no rhyme or reason to this process!

                              Bees, I've got the same situation with my background as you...but you still got called? I'm waiting for Detroit myself...scored 100. I just had to redo my EQip (update) and I'm getting mixed answers about the polygraph. I was referred to scheduling back in Nov, but everything got reset becasue the background had to get updated. They just told me today that you need a poly before the PFT2...no rhyme or reason as usual I guess.

                                Does anyone know if the push ups that you are required to pass in the academy are counted using the same 4 inch block used for the PFT 1?
