Day 75 in TSU for LA/Long Beach! Yay!..

DAMN! I hope I won't have to wait THAT long!

[JDNoble81]

The lack of communication is staggering.

HUGE understatement. I can't believe they pulled that crap on you. I'm so tired of family & friends telling me, "You have to be patient." Right. Try waiting for something for 450+ days and get back to me.

JD-

I really feel for you. It's stressful enough going through the process once, let alone getting pulled from TSU and not having a solid return date. It's not like they don't know when things are about to expire. How difficult would it be to schedule re-tests a week before something expires?

I really wonder how it will be handled if your number comes up for a slot. Will they skip over you, or hold your spot until the re-test is completed? I know they say that you return to TSU with the same date, but that doesn't explain how they handle it when you are next in line.

Good luck! At least you are in TSU. I'm still waiting for the elusive BI to call me.

81 on my written back in Feb/Mar 09, SW Border, some LE experience, about to turn 37 in a couple months.

C'mon MHC, what's not to like!!!?

I waited 22+ months back in the day before I was hired. That was more or less typical in 02. Several people I know waited more than 3 years.

Hiring times have actually improved.
Believe it or not...

Will I be notified when my BI submits my file for review? Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse, I'm just anxious to hear where my file is at. Met with my BI a month ago.

Depends on the investigator. Some show you that courtesy, others (like mine) keep you in the dark.

I appreciate the info barnaj.

Just curious is your GEO NJ? I took the test and put my GEO for NJ and it has been 2 years and 4 months and all I did was the background and because of a mistake I have been waiting ever since.

Does anybody know of any areas like NY, PA, DE, MD that are hiring so I can speed things up?

[barnaj]

I appreciate the info barnaj.

No problemo.

My Geo Pref is NJ I tested in Feb. '07

I don't doubt it. I know that there have been guys who've waited double the amount of time that I have. Still, it is frustrating to say the least.

Screw a t-shirt.

If I'm waiting that long, TSU better send an escort to my front door.
