GENERAL CBSA APPLICANT CHIT CHAT
Re: GENERAL CBSA APPLICANT CHIT CHAT
Hi there, when did you first pass your psych int/test? I got my sec clearance recently but my psych was done back in Jan 2018. I had to redo the medical and PARE. I guess they had to resched the psych for you right?Zepedder wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 1:45 pmYeah basically! Thanks, I'm hoping for January as well but I've yet to receive my results from my psych renewal. We'll see!Zedlinka wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 12:40 pmSo essentially just a series of really unfortunate luck.Zepedder wrote: ↑Tue Oct 15, 2019 12:38 pm
To be fair, I blew out my ACL and meniscus which required reconstructive surgery and delayed me some. But there was still a year alone for my clearance. Then when I redid my medical someone inputted my name wrong and so they claimed they never received my results which resulted in me getting passed up on three rounds of intakes.
Here's hoping you'll get in January. That's the best intake anyway.

Thanks!
Re: GENERAL CBSA APPLICANT CHIT CHAT
New to the forum, although I have been recently keeping an eye out for winter invites.
I noticed several people asking when invites for winter 2020 are expected. I assume this week or next would be likely due to an email I received in September. Recruitment asked me to renew my PARE and ensure it's submitted by October 15th to be considered for the winter intakes. I imagine that they would currently be assigning seats for the next intakes in Jan/Feb. Obviously speculation but for those interested I hope that helps.
