    Not yet! I think all deferrals will get called first. Then they'll carry on down the list

    got an email saying medical was close to expiry and had to sign a form to say there was no change in circumstances from when I was declared fit . does the fitness test also expire and if so does it need to be repeated does anyone know ?

    Nope PCA stays live for the length of the competition. I asked about it way back when it looked like my vetting was gonna take ages

    Out of curiosity how long does it last before it expires? I assumed it would last length of campaign as well

    Medical lasts 6 months, mine will expire at the start of September. Hopefully I will have got the call by then.

    I just scraped by with my medical too, thankfully I got my vetting cleared a couple of days before the medical expired.

    They just said it’s a box tick though, send the form in and 99.9% of the time it’s approved.

    Thanks! Yeah mine will expire about then too, and I had to appeal mine initially so hopefully that doesn’t throw up more problems. Doubtful I’ll be getting a call next week as well looking at some of the ML ranges still waiting and the deferrals. Another step closer anyway haha

    They got around 750 the last time so you could be in luck. Hopefully there is not too many deferrals for earlier in the year.

    September is likely to be the next intake, calls could go out at the start of August.

    Yeah from what they’ve told me September is the next earliest intake after a July. Bit crap there’s no sign of an August one. I’ve heard rumours coming out of GV that there may be one but when I asked about it they said no.

    I would predict calls for September to go out last week of July or first week of August.

    Can I ask what letter your surname starts with? I’m early 400s and no call yet. Kinda thinking it’s alphabetical.

    Brilliant, you’ll fly through the medical I’m sure. It’s a pass within days usually. SMT around a week or so.

    When you receive a call do they actually give you a start date on the phone? Roughly how many weeks until you start so that you can give notice if you are working?

    There could be more calls tomorrow, from what I've heard GV is normally Mon-Fri except if there is a bank holiday where you will get the Monday off and come in on the Saturday

    The start date is usually 6-8 weeks from the call.

    Yes, they gave me a start date. You have more than enough time to work notice etc.
