waiting on background, does anyone know if they pull all three credit agencies or just one of the three. I havent seen any new inquiries on any of my reports.

Thx in Advanced

[Dodge_Guy19-4]

Mine showed up on Transunion under "account review inquiries" The date was within a week of my packet being submitted to OPR. The inquiry reads CBP via DatafactsDHS or something similar and states reason is employment

[David1984]

Same mine showed up on Transunion. CBP requested it twice for my credit report.

[cstephensiv]

Thx guys and good luck in this forever process.... I've been reading this forum for months, but until I got the poly I didnt want to post anything thinking I'd jinx my chances.. lol but now I'm excited to hopefully get that infamous "call" everyone so highly anticipates from the day the app was submitted

[Fog682]

How long does it take to get a response from NOPA letter ? just waiting on a response back

[Hal29]

I've been waiting 4 months just to receive my NOPA. The only change I've seen was my bi went from in progress to pending. Still with opr.

[Hal29]

Also my credit was pulled on the 19th.

[MissAmitious]

Hal29 if you dont mind me asking, what does the BI icon on the CASS app say for you when you click on details? Mine just changed back to pending with this message as my details "Applicants who are found unsuitable receive notification via email." I take it I may be getting the can soon.

[Pef684]

First post thus far. I've been lurking on the forums for awhile. So I applied for BPA and CBPO (Both 20-2) and was selected for both (GS/GL-9). The timeline seems pretty quick (I guess) based off of some of the others I have seen.

Applied 11/15
Selected 11/22 (Posting closed 11/30????)
EQIP: 12/2
SI: 12/6
Pre-Security Interview: 12/6
Medical: 12/9

The BPA posting was a direct hire, CBPO was not. From what I have been told, the process is about 4 months long but from what I am seeing in the forums, I dont think that will be the case.....hoping mine keeps on moving along.

[fonzi7979]

Just be patient it is nerve wrecking for the anticipation for the polygraph and etc.

[TsFost]

I can see 4 months on some DH if things go a certain way. I got my final call just under 4 months after applying (provisional). Still unsure how they decide when people get it. I've read the DHS letters on it, but it didn't help clear it up any.

[David1984]

Nousername1 I have only been waiting for 2 months for background phase

[castrooj]

My process is moving at the same speed as yours but i am aware that for the poly its gonna be a super long wait.

EXAM 11/15
NOR EXAM PASS/ TENT OFFER 11/21
EQIP 11/25
MEDICAL 12/4
SI 12/5
FITNESS 12/10

[Cxp1137]

Got the call ! EOD 4-28-20 JFK

[Cxp1137]

19-3 ........

[fonzi7979]

Nice well I’m in 19-2 so I am getting closer to being scheduled for this poly hopefully and then off to the races from there. I’m just asking just to see what type of timeline for this process to be completed.

[Cxp1137]

fonzi7979 I understand it , there’s no real timeline when it happens it happens everyones situation is sooo different

[fonzi7979]

It’s understood. I’m glad for you and as well as progress is being made everyday.

[NoSlack898]

Anyone else EOD at San Ysidro in April ?

[Wendygx]

I EOD to San Ysidro in May

[jdop7]

Can I have a 'southern border' DH application and an 'other than southern border' application going on at the same time? If so, when I get The Call, will i be given the option to choose from locations on the border and not at the border?

[fonzi7979]

Good question it does not hurt to ask when they call you. If you go back into USA Jobs where your application is it will state all applicable locations for that DH announcement.

[antoniojeff808]

jdop7 that's what i did. Originally 18-9 DH Swb. Then i applied for another announcement reg hire 19-11. So all those hiring process from my original application went carried over to my second one, reg hire. And then i called them i was offered for the reg hire other than southern border location.

[TsFost]

I did, and was offered both. However I was offered the higher paygrade in the SWB locations. They are really needing people down there. I had a GS5, GS7, and GS9 application in, along with a BPA GL9 application in which finished at the same time.

[cstephensiv]

Congratulations!! Where to?

[MattCBP]

Congrats bro 19-3 VRA right behind you just waiting for background and DT! What port did you choose? Ill be in the same boat as you whenever i get the call because the port i want is in the Southeast, were they pretty chill on getting the port you want on the second call Dodge_Guy19-4

[Dodge_Guy19-4]

*************

[MattCBP]

Congrats man ! Wish you luck in FLETC

[xknuckles]

anyone know how I can submit my provisional hire? I forgot to submit it a while back with my equip and emailed my recruiter and he never got back to me

[fonzi7979]

Scan and email it to your case manager that’s what I did but be sure to follow up with him/her.

[TsFost]

Re-apply for the same thing and click on the provisional hire accept button. Both apps will run concurrently the both just wont show up in CASS after they did that revamp

[Charbouli]

Good morning everyone 18-12 here
So I took the drug test and received a pass exactly a week ago. I am a GS9 hire (not the southern border) just waiting on the call... Does anyone know about how long it takes? And what are my chances of getting either Tampa FL or Buffalo? I'd also take Michigan...(I know all very different lol but our family is scattered and I speak French, Arabic and Spanish so I can be utilized anywhere) Any advice? Or knowledge? Such a long process and so close now, it's exciting and excruciating all at once! Haha! someone answered that it was a "while" after their DT. What is a while? 3 weeks? 3 months? It's so tough to plan things while being in limbo! TIA for any advice!

[Dodge_Guy19-4]

Took me 3 weeks from DT to calling with offer.

[V_AntCBP]

unless you are a VRA, you will never get Tampa, its such a small airport, there are not many CBPO positions there, I flight out of Tampa all the time, and hardly ever seen any CBPO, I think Buffalo or Michigan are easier to get, ask them, I personally would take Buffalo over Michigan, so my priority list would be 1- Buffalo, 2-Michigan, and congrats, you are at the end of a long dark tunnel lol I'm 18-8 and still waiting my tail off... Charbouli relax, you will have plenty of time for planning, even after receiving the call, you have several months before EOD, plenty of time for moving and stuff...

[ChrisQuirolo]

V_AntCBP Any negatives to Michigan??

[Walla183]

Haven't seen much regarding this topic. According to the CBP website:

The CBP “Pre-Employment Polygraph Examination Reciprocity” Directive allows applicants who meet specific criteria, to include passing a previous federal pre-employment polygraph examination, to apply for polygraph examination reciprocity.

Has anyone had luck with this? Friend passed a poly with DIA, another passed poly for an 1811 gig.

[aztecquean]

[aztecquean]

V_AntCBP Actually just got the call minutes ago on the same day my medical cleared so I'm gonna **** tomorrow lol. But I applied June 2018 and my background cleared July 2019.

[210CBPO]

Congrats!! What port are you trying to get to? When did your app go to 75%. I'm on the same boat. At 75% waiting for drug test

[aztecquean]

210CBPO I got the final offer yesterday! I'm going to San Ysidro 5/7/2020.
FLETC 5/22/2020
My app went 75% the day they called me in to schedule the drug test.

[newyorkmets2018]

what's up guys and gals

i took the CBPO 19-1 exam but I have seem to hit a halt after my SI, ( I passed it check off and green on the app) I'm currently 50% done as per the app. The SI was back in April of this year and I was told that If don't hear anything in 6 months to email them. Anyone have a similar situation ? thanks

[fonzi7979]

I’m in the same boat 19-2 announcement. I emailed ICAD just as we were all told after completing the SI and I only receive auto response. I also reached out to contact center via email and just to look out for email or phone call about scheduling.

[Turboboigti]

It is more like a year wait for poly

[Hal29]

Anyone else having trouble getting on cass?

[V_AntCBP]

I have trouble too... Hal29 they keep updating all kind of things...but haven't seen any improvement. somebody has to justify their paychecks I guess lol

[TsFost]

Seems Cass is down right now

[sory_ann]

Yeah! Cass seems to be down. I tried logging as well

[V_AntCBP]

Cass is up... Everything stayed the same. Nothing cleared during the outage for me... Lol

[Hal29]

Yeah same here.
