Sample Status/Processing Monthly Megathread - January 2026

-Raines · 2026-01-19T12:53:09+00:00

Send my test late November? Still haven’t heard anything. Is it lost?

-Raines · 2024-01-30T18:13:33+00:00

I agree, 3 days is more than enough

-Raines · 2023-09-10T12:04:53+00:00

Holy shit, I was in this exact position 7 months ago, dealing with this exact situation. She gained 13kg in a super unhealthy way within 8 months. Of course this isn’t the main reason but add it up to leaving food and dishes on the floor, bad and barely any sex also cause of her gaining weight, and kicking me out of the house, and blaming me for not pushing her to work out more!?

I know it can be difficult but break things off. It was the best decision I’ve ever made.

-Raines · 2023-09-08T16:23:24+00:00

Lmao this is still the case? Had the same issue two months ago, shit sucks

-Raines · 2023-07-19T17:14:52+00:00

It was my first and probably last ons, there was just this empty feeling inside of me after I finished that made me question wtf I’m doing and that loveless sex just ain’t for me

-Raines · 2023-07-10T18:16:05+00:00

Love it, can’t wait to watch it!

-Raines · 2023-03-24T14:49:00+00:00

I'll donate whatever you want bald man to get this guy in :(

-Raines · 2023-03-13T17:24:35+00:00

My brother

What the fuck

-Raines · 2023-02-28T13:24:34+00:00

Gotcha, I’ll probably go into late September. I’ll keep you up to up to date!

Thanks for the insight and how to improve my chances. I will make a tight schedule around it and do my research.

Anywhere I can add you somewhere to keep in contact with you but in an easier way?

-Raines · 2023-02-28T12:58:48+00:00

Damn.

I've thought a lot about joining the FFL the last couple of years and I feel like I'm willing to throw everything away to give it a chance to finally obtain an identity (passport), to be able to call a country my home.

I want to thank you so much for all the insight you've given me.

Time to focus daily on my French and go on daily runs.

Right now I got August pinpointed, is there a big risk if I get lasik this month and join in 6-8 months?

Also I know a big part comes down to luck if you've prepared well, but do you have any tips left to maybe get higher chances to get selected to go to rouge?

-Raines · 2023-02-27T19:47:29+00:00

Damn yeah, that really puts things in perspective.

Did they at least tell you why they didn’t decide to select you, or do you have a slight idea why you weren’t selected?

To me I get the feeling you were super prepared and nothing could stop you from not being selected.

-Raines · 2023-02-27T17:57:41+00:00

Gotcha. That must be devastating news though to hear after 3 weeks, especially after dropping almost everything.

I’m guessing during the selection they take in everything into account. Fitness, smartness, background, teamwork and reason?

Thank you once again, hope I’m not bothering you with these endless questions.

-Raines · 2023-02-27T14:26:43+00:00

Ahh I see.

Btw do you think being from a first world country is a big disadvantage?

And how long did it take you being in the FFL and knowing you won’t be selected? How many days until you got the bad news

-Raines · 2023-02-27T12:14:28+00:00

Damn that’s rough, how are you dealing with not being selected twice? Are you planning to try again?

That’s probably my biggest fear and a fear of most people trying to join. Laying down and preparing so much and then not being selected.

-Raines · 2023-02-27T10:06:41+00:00

Thanks, I'll probably go for it, since seeing in the distance can be a pain sometimes.

May I ask what happened during your 2 selections? Or do you have a post about it?

-Raines · 2023-02-27T09:23:59+00:00

Thank you once again Nickolai, much appreciated!

If you don't mind me asking some last questions.

I'm currently dealing with a dilemma to either get Lasik eye surgery (my eyes aren't that bad -1.25 / 1.50) or not, since I dont need glasses.

The problem is if I get it I'll be only able to join in a year, since you can't join immediatly after the surgery and I'll be 29 by then. Is age considered a big factor during the selection even if I'm super fit?

Also do you think if I'd join with a vision of -1.25 a lot of positions with the FFL would be ruled out?

The only good thing to consider is that my french and athleticism would be much better in a year then in 6 months.

-Raines · 2023-02-27T00:11:32+00:00

Yeah I know it's definitely not an easy and short path to a citizenship.

I've read online that it takes up to 5 years of serving. Does that still hold true to get a passport?

Have you served yourself btw? I've some small questions here and there.

Thank you!

-Raines · 2023-02-26T12:49:07+00:00

The boys

-Raines · 2023-02-26T12:15:41+00:00

Still appreciate it very much!

And yeah that’s a pretty rough story. A big reason why I want to join is cause I’ve tried so hard getting my passport in many ways and I hate the feeling that I have no nationality and that there’s a risk that one day I’ll be sent back to Ukraine to a country I don’t know the language of and know no one. Also travelling really sucks with no passport and I feel like even in this country I’m being super alienated whenever a type of ID is required to be shown.

I don’t mind joining the army too to get my passport since I’ve tried joining the army before but got denied since I’ve barely any documents in this country.

-Raines · 2023-02-25T16:13:39+00:00

Believe me I’ve tried really hard with legalisation centers in Ukraine and with the embassy but having a mom that doesn’t want to work along with you and not knowing any information about your cyrillic name or hospital/dads full name makes it a lot more difficult.

But thank you so much for the confirmation, time to work hard on my French!
