    If anybody is reaching out, any chance you could tag on a deadline question? I'll be asking myself when I get my ducks in a row, I'll also be asking about the affidavit, I mean are we talking full solicitor doc and PC signing? Not being able to know my grandparents middle names alone qualifys for that and I think they just missed the 1911 census.

    In all fairness, why do they need to check someone's middle name for someone who was born over 100 years ago and is probably deceased,I know they have to vet people but the level of detail they are looking for is bordering on the ridiculous, partner's aunt/uncles etc.

    If you come from a large family it is some detail to get through,and no mention of a deadline either.

    I went through this process back in 2017 when I backed out of the competition.

    Complete the form to the best of your ability and if any affidavits etc. are required, they'll email you when reviewing it. They're very reasonable. It's unlikely anybody will get it right first time around given the amount of detail required.

    In regard to grandparents middle names, I listed them as unknown and put the reason as deceased.

    I suspect we're gonna be in for a long wait at this stage of the competition based on historical threads.

    I'm hoping this process will be smoother. So far they are staying on track, so fingers crossed.

    No idea. I've just seen in older threads that it takes months (in some cases years) for them to conclude your vetting before you'll be invited to a medical, followed by training (assuming your medical is a success) 🫣

    I can't understand why you haven't got the link for the vetting form.

    What did you get? Just a breakdown of the interviews results, then what was it just one paragraph or a few paragraphs?

    It just seems very odd, it must be an oversight.

    Ya its a funny one. It just gave me a breakdown of the interview. OOM below 90. They said the AGS will be in contact about vetting and medical. When I emailed again to check, they said the AGS would be in contact soon. I wonder is there others that didn't get the vetting link.

    I got that also, but 2 paragraphs before that it gives the link and the faq's, are you missing that?

    My OOM was more than double what you got, so there is definitely some mistake there.

    did anyone get an email earlier today from the Garda HR office about medical clearance and stuff? I got one but got an email 2 minutes later to say that the previous message was recalled.


    Unsure on whether to disregard the first email altogether or not.

    That's great popsmoke, at least that's sorted.

    I didn't get any other emails, does it mean they are going to start medicals for some but not everyone🤔

    I didn't get a email regarding booking a medical,my OOM is over 170,so maybe I'm too far down at this stage,did any one high up on the OOM get an email to book the medical,this is getting stressful🥹

    I got an email today which was from AGS, it was about the vetting and the medical. It gave details on booking a medical. If you don't get this tomorrow , just send an email to the public jobs email and ask about it.
