Yes that's what I meant. Sent in additional 23 weeks ago.
-
medical and poly/BI is the longest part. Really just forget about the process and then when you get a email reply back quickly. My process was just as bad man, i applied at the end of September 2017, just offered the job the Monday after thanksgiving
-
They wanted more paper work about my back and how it healed, I didnt have alot of paperwork since i let it heal on its own and didnt go to a doctor.
I had a tear disk and 2 buldge disk from the Army, they could not do surgery since it was high risk. The doctor stated, it will heal over the next 2 years but you have to be light on it and work out at you're pace. I discharge out of the Army stop going to the VA, i started working out lightly. Every day i worked out, my job was a work out but my body healed over a year and a half. I had to type up a report on how i made the recovery and what i do on a day to day basis so they can evaluate me. That paperwork took 14.5 weeks by its self to clear.

No tips on the VA i just know you can use it. Last time i used it for a little bit it was real simple, sign in using VA benefits select on the job training fill out the paperwork and they will call you. Make sure you use the OJT (on the job training) they pay out is over a 2 year pay out. if you used some of it they will shrinkin the length to compensate. I will call them next week. i just remember it took a month or 2 for them to pay out when i went to a trade school. They want to verify that you show up and actually attend.

Current update: Received email from CBP stating the paperwork I emailed them for TSU was accepted and processed. My drug test hasn't turned green yet. Hopefully, now that they have the paperwork and its processed I'm closer to the call. I'm 110% certain I received a provisional clearance as well.

Sounds about right. Throughout the process whenever they have called me it was while I was at work or driving. If you call right back you end up having to leave a message too. It's frustrating.
-
Greencomms yuppers thats what I had to do, I had a feeling I should of brought my phone in the bathroom with me because I figured it would happen then but I figured since the shower was gonna be short I'd be fine lol.
I'm hoping they call back later today I told them Im free all day today and next week. If they don't that means I'm stuck waiting until Monday.Last edited by KevinMO91; 12-07-2018, 01:47 PM.

Does anyone know if answering yes on OF-306 question 14 (relatives working at the same agency, in this case, my dad works for CBP) can delay your hiring process after being put into TSU? My dad does not work at the same location I put in for, and he is not involved in the hiring process whatsoever.
Edit: Update -
Just got the call.

I've done my entire process backwards,
Took the poly, medical, structure interview, than drug test all in that order. Process for all 4 was within 3 weeks, than last week was told I was assigned a BI. I have a meeting with her on Friday to verify DL and citizenship,
I am from the SoCal region as well.

I applied on 10OCT2018, and my BI went green in the app on 26NOV2018. I never met anyone for the BI or talked with anyone about it. It went green on the same day that I received an approved polygraph waiver.
-
he has to have a clearance, a TS clearance. Thats why his BI went so quick.
-
Hal29 I'm not sure if you were directing that to me or to the original poster. I am a veteran, yes.

Has anyone taken the polygraph and told you passed verbally and taken a month or more to get the email stating that you passed??? I took my polygraph on November 9, 2018 and I still haven't received any email and my app states its still pending...

Calitown Thats what I thought too and I have been seeing everyone get it within a week or two and even as yourself the very next day.. I called the CBP Frontline Hiring Center and they tell me that they have not received it yet without even asking me for my application ID as if they are just trying to not want to help or search it up.. What should I do or who should I contact as they also told me it can take up to 2 months?!

CBPO.BPJ I was verbally told I passed when I took my polygraph.
I got a NOR email about a week later from the test administrator telling me OPR accepted the results.
Either the person who administered your test hasn't sent the results to OPR or they are still processing it.
-
KevinMO91 yea... I just called them again just now and the gentleman who answered now actually asked me for my ID and he said they have not received. He stated once they review it they will send it to them and they will have an update but for the meantime I will have to wait... This is sooooo frustrating and I just want to know already when I'm starting! I also wonder if me letting my examiner about my Eqip needing update as when I was putting in my children I noticed I didn't add my sons that passed away. He informed me he will update my Eqip but never got their date of birth or their DOD...

Well, ended up making the Referral list for another Fed position today, non-LEO, much higher pay grade though. If I end up getting a Tenative Offer, I’ll probably withdraw from CBP. This agency is going to continue to lose quality candidates to other opportunities if they can’t figure out how to improve their hiring process. Just under 6.5 months since my SI and still haven’t heard a peep on the poly. I can’t wait around forever.

My friend has been an atc for years..they make BANK!!!!!!!....if you can hack it go for it.....for instance if he took a position in NY they offered him close to 400k a year...they make an insane amount of money for the feds
-
I could be wrong on this, but I believe ATC is the highest paying non-management position in the Feds. I actually have a few family members who are ATC, they say it is stressful, but not as bad as people think. They’re entrance exam is pretty intense though, it basically seems like a stress management test. Lol
