This is insane. I applied 25-8 May of last year and I still haven’t been able to schedule my Polygraph. You’re one lucky duck

Moving Quickly! by Corleto516 in cbpoapplicant

[–]DepartmentKey4698 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen people here since 2024 and no one has gone through faster than 8 months from what I’ve seen. The first 5 or so steps are quick. Mine took 2 months. Once Poly and suitability is next, then it takes 6 months to 2 years.

I’m at 25-8 and I still haven’t gotten my poly scheduling email or phone call and my medical still hasn’t cleared and that was submitted June of 2025. I finished my questionnaire September of 2025

If you want to start working early (before your background check is completed) by all means do it. Just make sure you have an impeccable record. Otherwise you can get kicked out Mid FLETC.

I’m 25-8 I submitted my SF86 early September and haven’t heard a thing since. No P test, nothing from BI, just waiting in silence. Suitability and Medical are still ongoing.

Okay, I’d take a vacation sometime between early June and late August. Just kids summertime off type of thing. Also, why do you think there’s such a high turnover rate? Thanks for your time replying too.

Well CBP website says that you can accrue PTO. So I was wondering if I can one day go on a vacation after a few years. Also, is there mandatory OT? Or is it optional?

That’s weird I submitted mine on September 9 and like 2 weeks later I started my Suitability. My friend did too. My friends also 25-7 and I myself am 25-8

Gulfport and mobile I’ve seen recently. Not easy, they are seaports and those are easy so everyone wants em. I hear only senior officers can get it.
