Heeeeelllloooo!!
Update: BI contacted me this morning.. She advised she was sending a NOPA that was returned from 02/19... I received it today by email... They had previously sent it to my physical address that has no mail receptacle. I had already advised them I had a PO Box. Anyway, she told me I had 2 medical items showing as unpaid in my credit and that I needed to submit my responses to that. I told her I have receipts to confirm those are paid off already. I've been working on NOPA response ALL DAY and am sending in those receipts as exhibits along with my response. I know that will not be an issue since they are paid but it still does not reflect on my credit. She told me to send everything ASAP. I asked her about poly since I have not officially received any notice regarding results and she said I was good to go on that portion of pre-employment process. Anyone in the same boat? If so, how long after NOPA has been cleared do they call you for anything else? Keeping in mind everyone's case is different and it can varies depending on BI caseload...

Congrats I'm happy for you.

Good morning everyone,

So I was offered a position in Seattle Washington. I'm still on the fence about the position and some may think I'm crazy. I was told that I would start on the 4th of April either at a port or airport. Location hasn't been picked yet. Anyone here work at the Seattle location? Able to share any insight about expense, work environment , and anything else relative ? would greatly appreciate it. Oh and I'll be going to the academy at the end of April till end of August.

For the folks in PR, check your emails. Investigators will once again be on the island during the last week of March conducting polygraph exams. Good luck.

I know we were debating/discussing 'pre-employment forms' on CASS.

On Friday my case manager emailed me saying that IA wanted me to resend all of my E-QUIP signature forms. I sent them in on Friday evening and he said he sent them back to IA on Monday. Today my pre-employment forms went green on CASS.

I guess it really does count as something? No idea.

I am hoping that this is a sign that I will be getting a call to schedule the poly soon.
Did anyone else notice if they had received the poly scheduling soon after this went green. I think I remember people saying that theirs said N/A even after taking the poly.

As usual, just wondering during the waiting game.

What do I win for post 100?!

[Hulk_is_real]

Any 14-1 or under on the referred to schedule unit waiting line???

I was. 14-1 here. got the call last week.

I had my VBT and structural interview today. In the waiting room there were four other applicants. All four of them were currently Border Patrol Agents. One of them had over 10 years of service in the patrol and still wanted to switch over to the blue. We were all there mainly because going through another hiring process is easier to get our desired duty location than actually waiting for the Border Patrol to allow more transfers or putting in for a intelligence position up north.

I just thought this information could help people that are applying for both processes.
