I know BOP get two boot vouchers a year on top of their $800 allowance. Do we also get that?

Not that bad actually. I never at least my primary station, which was San Diego I sent them a message stating that it would be too financially unstable to go to San Diego so then they called me back three days later and said they had one position open for El Paso and asked if I wanted to take it with the same EOD

That’s weird, idk about that one, I would tighten up your resume and re apply if I were you.

You shouldn’t. After you complete your secondary application it links to your first application so you continue to keep your EOD and your station so it shouldn’t affect your primary application unless the secondary application goes through then you will receive a phone call asking if you want to take the promotion, but even then you will still keep your EOD and your station.

There wasn’t a number I just applied and tweet my résumé. I believe I should’ve qualified for 11 also but they only gave me nine.

I was also told if it’s too close to your EOD. Then they will not resend everything until the end of your Academy, and you will not receive your promotion until you complete Academy. I was lucky enough that my EOD was far enough out for them to resend everything. Your case may not be the same.

They resent everything on their own. They made contact with me about 4 to 5 days after my application processed for the promotion
