    It was due to the nice weather ^^ ... Jesus it has been some wait, at this stage we are all just desperate to get in. And we have to make our own individual arrangements (in my case kids and financial) I just need to know.
    Is there anyone else in the same boat?

    Yeah that’s probably it alright, yeah your either lucky with the process or not....I would just like to know at this stage so I can plan. It’s good to see some of the older ones on here getting offers too

    Lad my vetting was outstanding for like 8 months at one stage without any contact.
    Mine at the moment is complete but needs to be signed off as of a month ago.. I’m hoping it’s done anyway. Kinda getting fed up now.

    I just was told it takes as long as it takes, there is no set time for vetting. When did you hav your interview? Your vetting only starts after that

    I did the interview in November but because I had to do the Irish language exam with PAS I didnt receive form B until the end of January so my vetting probably only started in February which is just under 5 months reckon I'll be waiting a bit longer then.

    I was similar to yourself, I did my interview in April of last year. I gave them a complete copy of my B form then and I too had to take the Irish exam in June, so realistically mine is probably going on since June. Ah you could be lucky you know, don’t lose hope. I be heard of people getting less than a weeks notice to start.

    Nah I'm past all that optimistic craic. I did my medical this day last year I think so I'm expecting a email asking me to do it again. If I don't get one I'll take that as a sign.

    It’s so frustrating though when you ring and hear the same old story, we are still waiting on vetting.
    Yeah I’m not far off you there, I really don’t want to have to do that and the PCT again

    Ah the pct is easy it's just a 2 1/2 hour drive up and back for me so I can't be arsed driving that again. I was super motivated but having let it go on this long it's very hard to stay motivated. Especially hearing your vetting is not back yet over and over again.

    Yeah I’m the exact same. Sept 16, still waiting on vetting. Did medical in May of last year so should be due to retake it. Haven’t heard anything which probably isn’t a good sign

    About 2/3 weeks ago. Became apparent vetting wouldn’t be back by this intake. No mention of the medical, tbh wasn’t aware it was only valid for 12 months either until I read it here

    Oh right, and that was it yeah. Yeah I’ve heard of it before but I’m not sure how strict they are on the whole 12 month thing.

    I'm in the same boat. Passed medical in February, getting told vetting is outstanding. No meeting with the station etc until it is complete and same applies for PCT date. I'm nearly first name terms with the appointments office.

    Not to be cynical but 1 person getting an email and that one person just has one previous post seems a bit odd.

    There's a chance they got offered a spot from somebody who deferred but if the person got offered a place for the end of July that looks like the 2nd round offer but I'm not feeling too optimistic anyway. They've been at my vetting since last March ffs
