I am an Aug 05 test taker. My background interview was in October 2006. It is now May 2008 and My background and quals are still pending. Nothing has changed on my CASS screen in almost two years. I e-mailed Team 1 with the following response:
"Hello
Due to the privacy of background investigation process, we do not have access to any specific details regarding any applicant’s investigation. Keep in mind, that everyone will clear at a different rate depending on a number of factors, e.g., number of previous residences, ability to reach people indicated on your SF86, and so forth. The investigation process is extremely detailed and any issue that is identified will be researched in-depth before a final determination is made.
You investigation is still ongoing and if additional information is needed the Security unit will contact you directly. We continue to ask for your patience in this process.
Regarding you qualifications, they are determined periodically throughout the pre-employment process. Once your qualifications have been determined you will receive a letter informing you of your qualified grade."
I sent the e-mail out last month. Hope this helps.
The maximum effective range of an excuse is zero meters.
Looks like ICE just posted some vacancies. I'm sending my app today. I thought you had to contact your local FO to apply for the 1811 position with ICE. Oh well, here it goes anyway.
Don't give up. I got hired by two federal agencies. I learned that the application process is the first weeding out process. Don't give up.

According to the 911 board, some calls are going out. This is a great sign. Good luck to those of you in T+S waiting for a FLETC date!

I have been waiting in T/S for 8 months now...Is the phone ever going to ring......?
Excuse my ignorance - "T/S" is apparently something after everything else has been completed (except for a FLETC date) but what does it stand for?
As a nation we adhere to the maxim: "The object is not to die for one's country, it's to make the other poor son of a [gun] die for his." - Gen. Patton
T&S = Training and Scheduling.
Essentially, once all of your pre-employments are fulfilled you are "Referred to Schedule EOD" with EOD being entrance on duty. T&S is a term used to describe the wait before that magical call comes in telling you when to report to FLETC.
Just curious if any march/april 08' test takers have heard anything.... SI anyone? App packets???
:confused:
Guys and Gals,
Received the offer from ICE today for the June 23 class. Same SAC I tested. 09/06 tester.
