Hate to be the bad news bear but to all those who are in the same situation as me (just waiting for medical).. I was informed that the next academy isn't until January, which means everyone hoping there was one this year, don't hold your breath. Sucks!

Grease Monkey, if you showed up to any of the PT workshops, you’d know that the Dr7 is right and that the academy does start on October 1. The department probably told you January Academy information as you’re most likely not eligible for this October academy.

Stargazing642 How are the PT workshops? I’ve never been to one due to work schedule conflicts. Do you recommend attending?

As I've been told by other officers and applicants the PT workshops are gonna be your ticket to getting hired or not. They want to see if your committed, check your overall fitness level, as well as see if it improves over time. If you dont attend I would start so. As SOON as I'm eligible to attend I'm going too. Just need to get into background. Also your B.I should ask you how many you attend and its extra points to your overall eligibility score.

Although I didn’t apply for an officer position, I just did my poly this past Wednesday and on Monday went to turn in my paperwork to be assigned to a BI. This coming Friday I have an appointment for my live scan.
I was also told that we’re being intertwined amongst the officers going through the same process, so this may also be slowing things down.

I wonder how many people just get the waitlist expired vs actually getting a non select letter.

Very strange that some are still waiting around even for a background investigator (like me). I have still been waiting ever since I passed interviews in June and have not heard anything on when I start the background process. Doesn't make sense because they're constantly posting that they are hiring all over social media yet have a lot of people waiting around.

I was told on Halloween that my file was going to be presented the next week and if not the following for sure. It’s going on week five now and still nothing. It’s very confusing because it seemed like things were moving quickly, but maybe not.
I’m not sure if the election and change of positions have delayed anything.
