    I called MHC last week about my location/process and "she" said they are waiting for a slot to open at my location. However, Im thinking, if there wasnt already a slot available, the option would have never been presented or offered. At least, that seems logical to me. Like Merlin said, I think it has a lot to do with priority. Also, my buddy with ICE told me today that its definitely priority based, which means LAX, SouthWest Border and JFK are gonna get the call first due to the demand for officers at those locations.

          It just doesn't seem logical for them to give us our location offers if there wasn't already a position slot available at that specific location. I just think those JFK, LAX and most especially the Southwest Border applicants are getting first dibs on classes, which is understandable. Once they are squared away, the other locationed applicants will be given dates. Thats just my theory, haha. Could be totally wrong though. Who knows...haha

                  Presidio, TX

                  Arizona would be a fast track for sure. Just as demanding as the SouthWest Border itself. Matter of fact, my Buddy has to go there a lot for ICE (stationed on the East Coast) because its the "Wild West" out that way. High Demand for sure. Those two Texas locations are the SouthWest. Laredo is the Wild West too. Better pay though and good experience. The other locations Im not too sure about. San Ysidro rings a bell, but don't know much about it.


                  ..actually, I think Arizona is considered the CBP SouthWest Region.

                    Another announcement chocked full of top end locations and exciting port choices. Lucky applicants.

                      Nogales would be my choice. Good luck folks. Smooth sailing here at FLETC. Pretty easy and lots of freedom. Especially if you know how to "play the game" and act like an adult when it counts.

                        Are these considered premier locations? I thought JFK, Newark, LAX, Miami, etc. were the major ports.

                          San Ysidro is a huge port and likely the most complex port out there. Anyone who can succeed in SYS probably can successfully work at just about any port.

                          Laredo is also a major port and player.

                          Calexico and Nogales are a bit smaller than the biggest ports but still highly significant.

                          The rest are much less significant, although all are above average sized operations.
