Hey guys. Been reading this forum for some time now. Quick question. I'm a 14-3 applicant. About to start the process. I noticed they check our credit report, and unfortunately mines is not that great. Anyone knows if that would disqualify me?

Well its not about your credit score, what they are really looking for is someone having debt and being delinquent on that debt. It use to be 7000 dollars or more to be disqualified if you were delinquent. I don't know if any of that has changed.

If you are showing ways to get your debt in good standing and you reported it on your forms and e-QIP you should be fine.

Don't count on that 10 minutes when your'e taking your PFT2. It totally depends on how many other people are also taking the test. On average you'll get about 90 seconds break per person once you start taking the PFT2. If there are people who can't keep their heart rate down, you might actually get a few extra minutes. Prepare yourself for a 2-5 minute break between the different parts.

Good luck!

Where did you take yours at?

The idea is whether or not you can be manipulated/ coerced/ bribed/ etc... because of your debt. If you are deep in debt, behind in payments, etc.... you (hypothetically) may become desperate, and operatives know people like that are easier to manipulate by offering money. The exact criteria (whether there is a specific number) used to disqualify people is unknown to me though.
