    I've not received my request for GP clearance yet. Form B was returned to them a week ago. Anyone else in the same boat? Wondering if it's too early to email them. I know I'm probably being impatient (must be infuriating for those from 2018 campaign) but really hoping to make the February intake! Have vetting from abroad. Thanks.

    Just wondering has anyone had to postpone the PCT and if so, how soon did you get a new date? Thanks

    I had to postpone mine (for laser eye) - there was a bit less than a month between my two but suspect that will be different for anyone who postpones now as all the Dec PCT dates are gone out (as far as I know).

    Just a warning for those who postpone, you can only do it once - you have to attend the next date they give you or you'll be taken out of the campaign.

    Hi lads
    Did anyone have trouble emailing the B form? When I go to send it on 1 PDF it's saying too large and won't send? Is it ok to send it on 2 separate PDFs does anyone know?

    No, you cant send as 2 separate PDFs. Mine was sent back for that. Try changing the resolution to low res to minimise file size.

    They do not update you as the file is being processed. If you passed everything, you just have to wait untill next intake and hope to get an offer.

    What I don't understand though is that if the vetting is being carried on in the background and we can do PCT without that coming back, why are those with checks abroad not being called for PCT/medical now? I know people that are much further down the OOM and have them completed and I've not received the GP clearance form yet. :confused:

    I sent back 3 different files, the first page separate with the photo, then the whole PDF together and the last page separate with signature. They didn't ask me to change anything based off that. Had a few other changes to make.

    I got my vetting back to work in Airport Search Unit within 2 weeks and I assume the vetting is thorough as the airport is classed as a "High Risk Area" but here because of so many applicants and the work is somewhat manual its taking longer to process all the applications. Its the only logical reason.

    My GP clearance had to be back by the 20th and I haven't got a date yet. I phoned Wednesday and was told that we should hear early next week. No indication when the PCT would be though.

    How long was everyone waiting after they sent their GP clearance form back for a date? Also how long did it give you to prepare for PCT? Does anyone know when the inductions will be for the 2019 campaign? I know the information booklet says 'mid 2020' but is there anything more specific?

    Theres no time limit on the press ups but you're better off doing them as fast as you can. You might get lucky and get an instructor who will encourage you to keep going
