    Cml29 my ML sounds pretty close to yours. I did medical recently and heard I passed the very next day. Was told a 2 week wait for results of SMT. Got email to say vetting is passed before I went to medical. Just want to start yesterday!

    Hoping with recent statements by chief con there may be a push for quicker intake. I hear they’ve added an extra section at GV to get numbers through.

    Same as you though, I was taking a stab in the dark and hoping for a start date in Nov/Dec

    Hi Imogenr1, I think Dec is a safe enough bet. Total pain waiting for the call though lol! Do you know if recruitment make phone calls at a particular time in the month - say when they update their appointable candidates list or do they make the calls on a rolling / daily basis?

    Would be nice to know maybe what time of month to expect a call

    Hi guys, for the ones that have done the PCA, how did you find it? I'm doing mine soon, straight after my nightshift!

    Hi there, it was ok, you just need to put the head down and keep going! I think 99% of people who have been doing cardio training would pass it ok.

    I found it easy enough to navigate the obstacles at speed without knocking anything down etc and i’m defo not the most flexible or the slightest build in the world.

    No idea on the above sorry cml29. I got a call the other day and got my hopes up but they were just checking I got the online learning.

    As far as I’m aware greys are new in GV which means they can take up to 40/50 extra students whereas previous years didn’t have this extra colour.

    Are you waiting on SMT results?

    Passed SMT, only thing i’m waiting on is the call! Not long now i’m sure imogenr1 :)

    Does anyone know if the NI transitional allowance is paid to student officers? Or only when appointed as constables?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11 mack12


    Congrats! I'm waiting patiently too ML 240-270. Can I ask what intake you will be in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭Aimforstars


    How long did you guys wait for smt results? Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4 GRJ27


    I'm 180-200 but my vetting still hasn't come through. Would that be a reason why I havent had a call yet?

    Yes everything needs passed before you're appointable


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14 Notorious3


    I am in the November intake.

    I had to contact recruitment 2 weeks after I had my medical as I didn’t hear anything.

    GRJ27 your vetting will have to clear before you are offered a place.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4 GRJ27


    I have contacted them and my vetting is still pending. Passed everything else so I hope it doesn't take too long! Do they email you to say its passed?
    Congrats to the guys that got their calls though!

    Did you send vetting a credit report along with your documents?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 229 ✭✭YNWA27


    Ps the credit reportnto vetting is only for ROI candidates, NI/GB candidates don't panic.

    Asking on behalf of someone not on the boards, neither of us had seen anything about sending them an additional credit report in?

    They can't check RoI credit reference agencies so unless you sent one they cannot do a credit check. Did you send one?

    Hello All,

    How long after your completion of the online learning do you get your pass certificate?

    Thanks
