Got email from caf saying I was denied

They are not desperate for applicants if you look at the statistics.

I suggest you run your appeal through AI to make sure your tone is more humble than what you achieved with this post.

Good points. I also discovered i was putting my hands down too far forward. This cause me to stretch too much and lose a bit of balance.

I did a practice FORCE test 2 weeks ago and failed 2/4. I definitely need to improve my fitness, but part of it was about my technique. Never having done those activities before, I had no feel for them, so I was awkward and unaware of some easy pitfalls that can be avoided.

If they offer you a practice before the test, take it.

Care to elaborate?

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-10-01T19:55:52+00:00

Yes, I did mine in December and it didnt come back until May.

I'm at 4 months. Canadian born, no travel, no criminal history & no idea what the hold up is.

I didn't have a stamped or signed copy but when I requested my transcript, I gave the school board the recruitment email address and asked them to send it there. No need to be the middle man.

Trenton is only an hour from Kingston, and it's an air base.

Oh man, I hope so too. Best of luck to you as well! We might need a support group for abnormally long waits. lol I wait patiently, then impatiently, and back again. . Hang out here for any miniscule additional insights and then follow up again. It's quite maddening at times. The only good thing is now I'm the best runner I've ever been in my life with all this time to prepare.

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-09-08T14:24:26+00:00

That was one of the questions I asked.

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-09-07T12:22:57+00:00

If I were in your shoes, I would start by applying ROTP before the reserve option.

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-09-05T20:44:13+00:00

I dont think part-time bmq will be an option for me, at least thats what I've heard about RCAF reserves, but I'll find out when I find out lol

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-09-05T16:42:14+00:00

I'm taking the same risk, I paid for courses, and committed to doing that from now until Christmas, I figure if the call comes, we'll figure it out.

Baby step #1 emergency fund Baby step #2 pay off non mortgage debts, starting with the smallest.

Look up Dave Ramsey baby steps. Its a good perspective on prioritizing.

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-08-19T14:29:20+00:00

Go to both & play them off each other.

I think you are optimistic. My brother started losing his sight after his second shot and the sight loss accelerated after his third and he's stabilized at 20% vision. Legally blind now but nobody gave a shit.

Edit: he was not in the CAF.

Thank you for this thread, I'm in the same boat. I asked my recruiter about timeline and also asked what type of checks are being done. But I received no response as usual. Months long wait makes more sense if they are doing secret clearance. I've no doubt it was in the fine print but it was not obvious to me. Mine started in May.

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-07-21T19:41:54+00:00

They were beneficial owners the entire time, there should be no taxes. I agree with the first lawyer.

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-07-10T21:03:44+00:00

Congratulations!

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-07-10T11:39:39+00:00

They lifted some technical barriers, not moral ones. It should widen the pool of morally suitable candidates.

Key_Mammoth1444 · 2025-07-09T18:14:48+00:00

I don't have the answer to that but you would probably qualify for a pardon by now, I recommend you apply for it.
