    From someone who works in the public sector, has debts and is vetted to CTC and SV level.

    They won't care as long as they can see it is managed.

    I think the only issue here is you claiming people have said things they didnt and twisting words to be honest. I dont know a single person who wouldnt advise someone to clear their debt if they are in a position to do so. Your attitude to try and use other peoples advice, to someone who asked for it, is in no way supportive as you claim youre trying to be. Having read last years discussion and seen the arguments that arose from that due to, what I would class as ignorance and bully tactics, I think I'll continue the process offline.
    Best of luck!!

    Ehhh, going by a few of these posts, was anyone at the darts tonight? I was, great craic!

    I’m not overly concerned about my financial status, I’ll be honest and open about what’s going on and I’ll also pay what is due. As every single business person has told me, my money is better in the bank. I’ve worked using that mantra and it’s certainly been kind to me thus far.

    Yip. Having debt and having surplus cash shows that you are managing the debt well and using debt instead of being used by it.

    Nail on the head

    It seems they send emails on the last week of the month as well as make calls for job offers. By that time we’ll all be very close to the outcome of our AC anyway.

    Fast track emails came in 3 batches 2 or 3 weeks apart in 1710.

    So the next 2 weeks will tell if that was a one of occurrence or not

    You will be progressed through the PSNI managed stages in order of merit.

    The higher the score the quicker you go

    Hey guys! Was noseying through other years chats ( getting obsessed lol) and some of the second fast track people got say 67 so maybe 55-65 people dont get fast tracked. Do they hear back on the may date or not for potentially 6 months down the line?!

    Everyone will find out their results by the 10th of May if that’s what you’re asking. It seems that they make calls/send emails on the last week of the month so potentially some people will get FT’d in the last week of April.

    Actually got them completed in about an hour there. Obviously everyones circumstances are different but I thought that would have taken me all day!!
    Anxious for PCA date now to see if I can get it off

    Did you include a passport sized photograph with your vetting forms?

    I noticed in previous years everyone sent a photograph but can’t find any instruction to do so this year. Maybe it changed along with how they sent us the vetting forms?

    Does everyone who makes the pass mark get put on the merit list for the psni managed stages do you know? Or is it just a certain percent. Thanks

    Everyone who achieves the pass mark will be put through to the PSNI managed stages. I’m not sure when you get the merit number these days, in 1509 I didn’t get a merit number with the AC results but I believe that has changed and you do get it with the AC results now.
