WHOO HOO CASS shows that everything is completed today! Now its TSU time.

Congrats man! It's the weekend go out and celebrate! Make sure you have DD though.

So anyone that want's to change Geo Pref and already has a TO, all you have to do is re-apply in the new announcement that has your location...THAT'S IT... all of your process continues as is and once you get a new TO from the new location everything transfers over automatically. The whole you have to decline your current offer line is BS, cause that'll cancel out everything that's pending (tossed away) and begin everything again from the start.

Yoda, just out of curiosity what was your score? I scored an 88 for NY/All Other locations and received a TO on 12/24. I completed my med/fitness test today and am scheduled for the VBT on 1/21. Problem is I will have some issues relocating from North Jersey to Upstate NY so I really really would prefer Newark (however possible that may be due to their lagging) or JFK as a 2nd choice.

I know there is an announcement opening up on 1/30 and I plan on reapplying if these 2 locations are available. If they are, you are saying I can just reapply on that announcement, right? Would I have to retest or does my score carry over along with the other stuff? I thought an 88 was an okay score but the way things are moving with NJ/JFK it seems like u need to have a score of 1,000!! Trying to keep hope alive here...so confused...

My Timeline:
Test: 8/15/08 (88)
TO: 12/24/08
Med/Fitness: 1/16/09 (passed fitness, assuming i passed Med)
VBT: Scheduled 1/21/09
Drug: pending
Quals: pending
BI: pending

Go ahead and apply if the geo pref you want is there, you have nothing to loose and everything to gain... Your current application keeps moving along uninterrupted and once they send you a new TO for the other location everything transfers over, you only need to hope it happens before they give you the call for your initial pref...
When you apply online it'll ask you if you want to use the score of the test you had taken previously or if you want to test again... I'd go with your current test, it's a second round score but you never know how many people they're looking for...
Good Luck on getting the new pref.!

Thanks for your quick response. Do you know if they would send TO's to those who have already previously tested or would they wait for the new testers to be scored?

You get your NOR in about a week after applying, and will have to wait for the round of testing to go through and your score to be pulled for a TO. You don't get an advantage by having tested already, you have to wait your turn in line like everyone else, but while you're waiting your process keeps moving along with your previous app. As mentioned before, it would depend on how many people take the test for JFK, from those, how many of them scored higher than you, and then How many vacancies JFK is looking to fill.

In my case I applied Nov 3rd, and got my TO Dec 22nd (but I was a first round score). Again, you have nothing to loose by applying and letting the ball roll on both ends... either way you'll be set.

Yeah mine updated too, backwards that is. I forgot the last time i took the physical was in January, so it must have expired cuz my cass went from completed to pending on that one. And by the way, that is the online CASS, the phone still says fitness is completed, so who knows?

The man speaks truth.

Hahahaa, Thats about true!! Like I said before in a past post I currently have a good job, but also who knows how long that's gona last with this crappy economy. When someone like me starts a process you kinda want it to go fast, but I understand why they have these checks and balances. Who wants to work next to a slugg, never the less a traitor!

Yeah but can never tell who is gonna end up doing what. A guy with a questionable past could end up the best officer in history, while a model citizen with 15 years on the job might decide one day that his retirement and gonna be enough and start taking bribes. Just no way of knowing.

Is there even a point checking CASS on a saturday?

As someone mentioned earlier, I really do feel like desmond from lost. Every morning, I have to get up..type in the last 4 of my social and my birthdate or else my day will feel incomplete .

Maybe we are all monkeys in a social experiment by the government, or worse...by the Dharma Intiative .


Can you guys tell I miss Lost?
