    Just thought I would make a thread for us still waiting on vetting as most people in the main thread are waiting on the call now.

    Edit: meant those with a score below 60 who have only completed IST and AC

    I am in 60s mine has cleared. Does this mean if your vetting didn't clear on time for the call someone with a lower score who has passed everything would get the call?

    Exactly! If I score 70 and you score 67 but you've passed vetting and I haven't the you'll go in before me as I am not in an 'appointable position'.

    Correct, no harm done though. Wonder if we will get a progression letter before vetting forms? It's ridiculous we've had no contact at all for so long now

    I most assuredly had one of the lowest if not the lowest passing AC score of the 1509 campaign, so when I hear anything we'll know when everyone has been processed ha!

    Glad I'm not on my own. I'm 55-60 after AC .. Are we all in the same boat? Haven't received anything other than that letter about waiting etc.. So frustrated over all of this now

    I got 59.25 in the previous campaign and missed out my score this time I think was just over 55 i think, so I am eternally grateful they lowered the pass mark because I could not go through all this again. This waiting about is a nightmare but those posts on the main thread about those foi's have really encouraged me, however again even looking at some of them they did their PCAs in june and still not a thing, once we have our vetting forms I will be over the moon as atleast that will be the ball rolling.

    The only thing worse than being sick is being sick knowing you'll have a PCA to do in the near future. dose of the cold has killed my training this week too but. Think it is based on AC score probably, we're all in the same boat with the low scores but I'm sure we'll get in if we pass everything

    Obviously you guys will be aiming to pass first time but if you have to retest don't worry. Things set us back in our training but let me tell you the support sessions offered after the first failed attempt are amazing. I would never have passed if it wasn't for them. Still waiting on my vetting clearing though

    How long does it normally take for vetting to clear?

    Think it really depends on lots of things but seems like it could be anything from 3 - 8 months

    Reckon it will be next week.

    Would be no point sending PCA dates to people to chose not to return their vetting forms.

    Who knows though?

    Never thought of that. I was just thinking they would send them anyway think I read somewhere that if you failed PCA or medical they would cancel your OL so I assumed they would just go ahead. I was just thinking progression letter> 2weeks OL > 2 weeks vetting> 2 weeks PCA

    I'll be keeping an eye on the emails tomorrow anyway lol

    Didnt it say failure to return the forms counted as withdrawing yourself from the process?

    Would love it to be tomorrow myself but thinking next week or two :)
