Would it be considered poor form to mention my March 16th eod for Detroit Land border? If it's any consolation barnaj, they seem to be offering PH to all the Michigan people.

Any 943's out there?

See ya Monday

[girly]

Yeah its like being in coffin but you're still alive and nobody knew it when they buried you. I waited from October til March for my BI to clear, so hopefully you'll have a faster ride, but just keep at it.

October to March thats all, well mine should be coming soon hopefully also lol. . I think I am starting to get impatient. My luck I will get called to come down there in the HOTTEST STICKIEST most HUMID freaking weather that they have ever had lol

Does anyone know if there is any leniency on the hearing test. Apparently shooting guns when I was younger has made some impact on my hearing at 6000 Hz. You can't exceed the threshold of 45dB and mine is 60dB.

Everything else with my hearing is 100%. I had to get a test done by an audiologist.

Any help anyone can give would be great.

Well, Judoka, to address your quest....excuse me, let me say that so you can hear it, TO ADDRESS YOUR QUESTION I HAVE NO IDEA IF THERE IS ANY LENIENCY ON IT BUT GOOD LUCK TO YOU!

Its Port Huron, the other major land border crossing in Michigan.

BOP at a hard-to-fill facility would probably be his best bet. That way, if he did get hired, he'd stop the clock in terms of jumping over to CBP/OFO.

BP would likely hire him, but since they're handing out waivers to everybody they'd likely not get around to it until after his 37th B-day. It's a fine choice if he wants to stay a PA, but CBP/OFO is likely not to honor the waiver...if his goal is becoming a CBPO.

I spoke to a Border Patrol Recruiter last week at the Houston Rodeo and he said their max age was 40.

Border Patrol's maximum age is currently 40. The thing is...it's really 37 with a waiver up to the age of 40.

That's all fine if somebody is looking for a career as a PA. But for somebody looking to move elsewhere in FLEO, finding another agency willing to honor the waiver will probably be a tough sell.

Which is why I suggested BOP. If he can be rushed aboard before he turns 37, he's good to go anywhere in the future. If he comes aboard with an agency after he turns 37, then moving isn't going to be quite so clear or simple.

Yeeehaww!

Hey JD,
I notice on your timelines that ICE accepted your medical, fitness, etc...from CBP will CBP accept that stuff from ICE? I just received a TO from CBP after completing some of the IEA steps.

ICE accepted my medical and drug test. I'd imagine that CBP would accept the same from ICE. Since the fitness tests are different, they're not interchangable. The ICE fitness has the push up test, and the step test is a 16in step and a notch slower pace compared to a 12in step and a bit faster pace for CBP. Hope this helps.

What's your ICE timeline??

That is true my friend very true, looking outside right now it looks brights and sunny, and warm. And then you walk outside and if you were sleeping you are no more you are now AWAKE LOL.

[wmcgalrd]

Yeeehaww!

Guess I had that coming

Thanks
