CBP officer

[NJdevilsFingersCrossed]

I'm noticing a lot off ppl from 14-1 are getting schedule for the VBT/SI and PFT-1 now. My region preference is central east coast. Anybody from central east coast getting any notifications ?? I'm assuming the ppl that are processing faster are those who chosen regions that are in higher demand ? For the guys/gals who are processing faster what are some of the regions that you have chosen ?

I put central east coast and I have only done e-QIP and fingerprints recently. I just had a background done for work 4 months ago too. Southwest border is priority right now due to many officers leaving for more desirable living conditions.

I picked the Mid West Region. Applied for 14-1 on May 5th, 2014. So far I have done my Entrance Exam, Eqip, Fingerprints and I'm scheduled for VBT/SI on Sept 19th 2014.

I am 14-1 and have SWB geo. But I was told that the southwest is in high demand so process may be faster than usual, especially for the female officer positions.

[MIRACLE]

Yup SWB is in high demand so 14-1 and 14-2 applicants process should be super fast, from what I hear.

I selected central east coast and scheduled my medical/pf today

no word on the vbt/si yet

I applied for 14-1 SWB. e-QIP and fingerprints already submitted and I have my medical/PFT1 next Friday! This process is moving way faster than I anticipated!! Best of luck to everyone!

I did the same thing back when I filled out my Eqip and sent in the required documents. I was emailed by the MHC about 2 days later, and they told me that one of the attachments was missing and needed to be completed ASAP. I don't think I faxed it though, they unlocked my SF-86 so I could go back in and upload the documents.

So they will definitely contact you to correct the problem. Not a bad thing, it happens and they know it.

Same thing happened to me, they just unlocked it like you said.

I also have completed the PFT-1, the Medical and the VBT/SI and waiting to move fwrd.. I called and was told they have not gotten to the April Medical reviews??? also they wont send BG until the Med Officer clers the medical??
Good Luck!

I am happy for everyone that is flying through the process 14-1. But I hope CBP goes a little faster with the ones that been in the process a while. I took my test year ago this month. Now I am stuck on medical. I have been waiting for my medical to go green since April. I have called and emailed them but I never hear anything back. Maybe I am calling the wrong number or email. Does anyone have that email or number?

[jaybous]

Just got a call and scheduled my medical and pft1. crazy fast. just submitted the eqip last night

Pf test is just pushups, situps and step test right?

I believe the steps test is now a 1.5 mile run.
