CBP officer

[leadslinger11b]

Has anyone else out there taken the recent CBP test, a little over a month ago? I got my NOR yesterday, and scored nice N high, but it didnt say anything about the rest of the process. Does anyone know whats next, like next steps, timelines ect?

MMatthews sounds like a shorty recruiter if they don’t know that. Pretty good benefit to get vets to join.

MMatthews https://www.cbp.gov/faqs/if-qualifie...-border-patrol. That’s say border patrol but I was told it is the same process. Just have to file the paperwork when you do your two weeks before the academy.

[MMatthews]

As a local police officer correct I've used mine as well but from what I was told by a two different recruiters you can't use it for a federal law enforcement academy.

Thanks for pointing this out ! (2) Seasons, i know what i'll be binge watching.

MMattMcD ive already been through an academy and used it every step of the way including after I graduated while on fto and in my probationary period. So yes, you do because I’ve already researched it.

[MMatthews]

You know you don’t receive GI benefits while in the academy right.??

With provisional your bi is still being processed while going through the academy. Thus the reason it is provisional. But you still need to do drug test. A drug screen is done before a conditional offer is made on any law enforcement job.

[JPOL]

If you sign a provisional clear, but you haven't finished the process yet, is it possible to end up going to the academy before they finish the necessary steps like DT or BI? Or does BI and DT MUST be done before you get shipped to academy?

My original nor said what grade I was eligible for. After your initial nor you get your tentative selection letter

So there's really two NOR's. One is the results email you get a day or two after taking the initial test. The second one is a few weeks later saying what grade you're eligible for. After that, it could be a few days to a month or more to get your tentative selection email. I waited almost a month to get my tentative selection.
