Anyone know the likelihood of being transferred after accepting a position at a place you applied for? I ask because my husband and I just bought a house... I am wondering if one can be transferred anywhere at any time, or anywhere within the geographical location that was applied for...? Thanks for any info on this.Last edited by mrst; 02-14-2009, 06:56 PM.

It has already been 90 days for me. I was just hoping to preempt the need to wait longer for my med to clear by submitting it at the medical...CBPO:

The math was much harder than the study guide questions. In the guide the answers were in the tens and hundreds. But on the exam the answers were in the hundred thousands and millions. Plus without a calculator.Luck is where preparation meets opportunity. - Seneca

do we get told when we enter BI?
As far as the BI goes, after you complete the forms you won't hear anything about it until you are contacted by your background investigator.

Yoda I was wondering one other thing. I have a pending position with DHS - CIS and it looks like they want to do an interim clearance for the position I applied for. I already went through the drug screen for DHS - CIS and I was hoping that would transfer over to DHS - CBP... any thoughts?
When they do an interim clearance do they still call your current boss and references first before issuing the interim or do they usually just do a fbi name/fingerprint check then check references later?
Their timeframe for that job is a little to fast for me so despite the decent payscale I'll probably decline it for the CBP position or hopefully the asylum officer position I applied for.
Thx again.CBPO:

As interim clearances go, they do Name/ Fingerprint, credit check and a quick look at your forms to see if there are any red flags or irregularities. All of your references are contacted by the investigator/s as part of the Full Investigation.CBPO
