        It takes a few days for quality control to go through the results. I took the poly earlier this month and my examiner gave me a verbal pass. So, I thought nothing of it. About a week later I get a call from the examiner and quality control wants me to retest.

        collapse thanks for sharing what announcement are you in and are you going to JFK. I’m waiting for my Polygraph exam to be scheduled. How long after SI did they call you or email you? Just curious I here all these horror stories about the poly any advise it seems like for every 10 only 3 pass the poly.

        I'm 18-6 I picked Champlain, NY, but if I get the call I'll ask if JFK is available.

        I did the SI in July and they called be for the poly at the beginning of Oct.

        Be calm, don't overthink is all I can say about the poly really. I failed in 2016, went in to this one with a been there whatever mindset.

        Rio rico about 20 mins from Nogales and cheaper and Sahuarita about a hour from Nogales and about 15 mins from Tucson more family oriented and expensive... I'm also thinking being closer to Tucson would be a good thing..

        Rio Rico is like 10 to 15 minutes from the port but schools are poor and housing options are limited compared with Green Valley or Sahuarita. Sahuarita is 40 to 45 minutes and schools are way better. There is also more to do there. There is not much in Nogales

        How's it going everyone, applied May 2019, just got my email for E-qip and email confirmation for SI in June. It seems like the process for me is going pretty quickly. Why does it seem for everyone else that it is taking forever.

          What grade are you and what steps have you completed? Usually after si it slows down drastically.

          Hal29 GL9, I'm starting my Eqip today. SI is 6/3 and just completed the form and dates for the medical exam.

          Brings another question the medical exam, where does that take place? Will I have to travel to Tucson or will it be a facility near me?

          The medical will be closer to you. They usually try to make it as convenient as possible.

        Does anyone know what the overtime opportunities are like at the New Orleans field office? I saw a PDF from CBP that had a recap of overtime budgets from 2014-2016 and New Orleans appeared to have the least amount of funding.
        There's this...



        That provides CBPO staffing levels based on Field Offices, N.O. included. Use this along with your other PDF and you can get an idea of the mean average in overtime offered up by each Field Office during those years.

            Hi everyone, so i had my SI yesterday for CBPO. Everything went well, i answered everything with confidence. After the interview they just advised me to wait in the lobby. After that they just told me the SI was concluded and to wait for the results. I took one for BPA and they told me then and there that i passed. I know the same thing has happened to some people where they dont tell them anything and then still pass. How was it for those of you that did the SI for CBPO? Do they usually tell you there if you passed?

              If your waiting on poly why you only at 38%. You waiting on medical? That has to clear before you can do poly.

              If that's the case that would explain it. I had to resubmit one thing for medical (eye exam). That was back in December and still hasn't cleared.

            How strict is med review? If they hire disabled veterans, wouldn’t they expect those disabled veterans to have aches and pains/mobility limitations? I can still pass the PT test with zero issues and more, just worried it’s a waste of time submitting all of these med review packets if they expect perfection.

              Initially for eagle pass. Since that application more ports I’d rather go too opened. When I first spoke to headquarters they said I would have to reapply to the new port do I did. Few days later I was contacted again and told as long as the remaining portions are successful I shouldn’t have an issue getting Baltimore. So we will see. I choose provisional bc I already hold a secret clearance as a federal Leo
