finally received a call for the psych oral. Excited to be moving forward. I've yet to receive a notice if I cleared my medical? I hope everything is ok.

I have my psych oral on Friday, but I never received word from CHP if I passed the medical. I'm assuming if you get a psych oral appointment, then that means you passed the medical? Or are they supposed to send something in the mail stating that you passed the medical?

From what I've read, your app status should change to "Medical Cleared" or something like that. Good luck on your oral!

I did my medical evaluation on 12/2 and still haven't cleared medical. I've yet to be scheduled for psych oral. So you're in a good spot either way. What are code was the psych oral call from? Also Sacramento?

Congrats everyone! I called up to CHU and I'm just waiting for my fingerprints to reprocess and for the doctor to put the final stamp on clearing my inactive waiver then I'll receive my offer. He's expected this week or next so anyone else waiting on medical results there may be an update soon.

60 days you guys!! Looking forward to meeting up with you all!
