Seems like those of us waiting for the call will have better chances in October. I heard that many ports with need of personal are not hiring because they need to wait for the funding.

Are thet actually hiring in San Ysidro?

^^ Everytime there's an opening San Ysidro seems to be available. Most of the ports in Arizona, Texas, and California are.

It definitely feels that way.

Those ports SW will always get funded.

unfortunately that would probably be the only island I'm not willing to go to, only because it belongs to the states. other island most expenses are paid for which is something I'm looking for in order to have maximum saving advantages. but thanks lol

And those islands you speak of are incredibly hard to get and you almost never start there it takes years

15-1 applicants were able to get Hawaii. A kid at my poly had it assigned and we all knew he wasn't going to pass his upcoming pft.

Funding is released in Oct or Nov? I thought it was Nov, could be wrong though.

Anyone know how the funding works? Do they wait until they have the funding and then get the ball rolling, or do they have everything lined up and the minute Oct. 1st hits, the pipeline starts flowing again?

[Pisan917]

I have no idea... I've been waiting for 6 weeks

Oct 1st

10-4. Dang, I hope great things come to us all in October then! That would make sense though, waiting for funding before sending less priority port candidates to FLETC. If thats the case, sounds like Christmas will be celebrated at Brunswick, GA with some classmates/comrades, hahaha.
