    Do they notify you if your file goes from outstanding to awaiting sign off? They say that to me everytime I email them but I've a feeling they won't say. Even that small change would help as the wait is so frustrating

    I'm from the 2017 Campaign and I just by chanced called up in March of this year and they told me it was from Outstanding to With the Commissioners office awaiting sign off. Been like that since.

    I done medical and physical both over a year ago now which is killing me to think ill have to do them again. Heard ppl say they last for 2 years others a year.

    The wait for me is bad enough can't imagine how painful it is for you, don't understand what takes them so long.

    Hi All,

    I’ve a question if anyone could help I’d really appreciate it. I completed a medical in June and was deferred on my BMI so I’ve to go back in September. Does anyone know what the process is? Do I contact them or will they contact me? I was told my date is the 12th of Sept the day of the medical, will I be doing the medical that day or will of be after that? If it’s after that do you get much extra time? Really appreciate the advise if anyone has been in this position.

    12th of September is your date I would think. Give them a ring to double check. If you need to defer it further give them a buzz.

    In the Same boat as you. Seeing 2018 lads who still had vetting outstanding while we as 2017 ''awaiting sign off'' and seeing them get offers is frustrating alright but look July looks a strong possibility now and not that long away.

    Does anyone know when the next intake is for 2019/2020

    The general consensus is that there will be an intake in December of this year. However, there is a possibility that they could get people down for November. It’s hard to know who and when people will be called.

    I’m from June 2017, they just keep telling me I’m awaiting sign off and there’s no further information they can give. It’s a pain in the hole.

    I think it's safe to say we're forgotten about considering there's new campaigns being recruited

    My boyfriend rang last week and was told the same. It’s great it’s earlier than December although December didn’t really make sense anyways because they’d be closing for Xmas and that.

    Exactly & was also told the one after that is January, which I taught was very soon after November!!

    Because they have to wait until one of the intakes leave at the end of November, there's less space in the college for trainees than there was in the past.

    Normally they start off with the first week of the month for induction and then a week off to get some things together followed by start of the course third week. So;
    2nd December - Induction
    9th December - Week off
    16th December - Start of course.

    Not sure how this will go though because of Christmas being in the middle of it all so surely this will have an impact on this.

    How come hrm keep saying November is the next intake? Starting the 16th December makes absolutely no sense and if that’s the case they’d be better waiting to January but then that’ll defer the whole 2019 campaign so that’ll be another mess. It’ll be great when offers start to come out so everyone has some clarity and knows the exact dates etc. This whole speculation thing and ppl saying difference things is irritating at this stage.
