April Start Date

tanzo22 · 13-03-2009 02:40PM

Ok guys, have a bit of dilemma any help would be much appreciated. Was looking at documents that you have to bring with you when you start on the 12th April and it said somewhere about your P45. Officially I don't leave my job until 10th April, although I am on leave for that last week, therefore though I won't have my P45. What happens with that?!?!

kelso69 · 13-03-2009 03:20PM

You should be able to get a P46 form to complete from the PSNI in which case you'll go on the basic rate of tax untill they've got your proper tax code sorted out.

i doubt ill have my P45 either but think its only as proof for National Insurance Number but im just gonna bring a pay slip from previous job or something. cant see it being too much of an issue

flip, saw some footage on the news and it seemed heartwrenching, that was very good of you to go. makes it hit home how serious the job is we're about to take on, and also how worthwhile the job is, strange mixed bag of feelings but mostly just sympathy for his family and friends and workmates. hey check your private messages, me and penis eye sent you one. hope you are doing alright after today...

I doubt I'll have my P45 on time either as I only finish work a few days before our training start date, so I'll have to get a P46 as well...

bet0409 · 14-03-2009 03:17PM

i'm sure i've read it somewhere but can't remember - what colour is the april intake, you know the way they talk about green teams etc? are we red?

Ali08 · 16-03-2009 03:34PM

I heard the squad was gonna be red for the Apriliers.
Anyway, how are you folks gettin on with the huge shopping list?? I got some things for Penis Eye this week, gonna gradually build up the resources. Somebody somewhere said there are plenty of ironing boards down there, so Im not getting him one.

Oh and do any of yous know is the dress code for the guests at the SID as formal as for the real people goin in?

That's good about the ironing boards, really didn't want to cart one of those in! lol.
I'm doing ok with my shopping, got my smart clothes sorted and a new duvet, duvet cover, pillows and also my sevlyt clothes but so far that's it! Just going to be picking bits and pieces up along the way.
Nosying on Argos today and they have a couple of good irons half price so I think that's next on my agenda!

I never really thought about the guests at the induction, I just had it in my head that my mum and dad would be smartly dressed as they would be coming from work!

hahaha sounds like a bita wishful thkn lol ha oj oj.

Its gone very quiet from the reds. I suppose everyone is too busy running and shopping for bed sheets to be posting...

How about this one; Does anyone have any idea what they would like to specialise in after their 2 years probation (if anything)? For example are you interested in climbing the greasy pole in terms of promotion? Or maybe you want to join CID? Or maybe you want to wait and see? Out of interest has anyone applied for HPD? (Holy c**p that all rhymes! Sort of)

tanzo22 · 19-03-2009 10:48AM

Maybe I'm being really simple but what's HPD? lol.

alright wordsworth! ur a poet... im not gonna finish it!

i would like to be a detective or somethin! thought u didnt have to worry bout the hpd until u got in. i remember somethin about it on the first application but i dont think i ticked the box as i didnt no exactly what it was! i wanna go as far as i can in the psni! if i get to the top i might even rename the service to the pns eye!!!:p

wot bout u ?

Im a poet and I never knew...TSG is what I want to do I think. Of course that could all change once we actually start. I heard on the news that CID were badly short staffed due to a load of them retiring at once so there could be plenty of openings there.

I wish I had hard work to do weirdly enough! Since I told them I was leaving they seem to have forgotten I work here and I get minimal work passed to me lol! You'd think I'd be estatic about this but when you are trying to work 8am - 5pm to build flexi so you can have your last week off it tends to drag! lol.

I ticked the box for that HPD when applying and would still be interested. At the minute I'm thinking I would love to get into dog handling after 2 years, but then there aren't many places and who knows what I'll like or be good at during training, so many options!

Got most shopping done I think, just a few wee bits and pieces left, still sooooo excited but also quite nervous!

hey yeh i kno its very quiet now lol

yeh i ticked the box for HPD. I want to go into the special response dept.

HPD is for exceptionally high scorers. You can still apply for specialist posts without having selected it. I heard that even if you didnt select HPD on your application that they will contact you if your score is good enough.

Yea as far as im aware HPD is set against the national competencies required to become an inspector. You have to sit exams etc and there is a pass mark i.e. if no one passes no one gets onto HPD. HPD has nothing to do with specialising, its aimed at those who want jobs in the upper echilons of the force (inspector and above).

To be honest it does not really interest me, coming out of one office job and trying to race my way to another one (all be it one in a psni uniform).

The front line is where the action is at!:D

integra1 · 20-03-2009 11:15AM

I totally agree CPN, sick off 9-5 office job. I want to be out and about, frontline policing etc...I don't want to run staright back in to an office job again staright away...

Kelz · 20-03-2009 03:44PM

1 week, 1 hours and 15 minutes left of work!!! get me out of here now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats! I'm sure you're chuffed. Can I ask, why July? I got my letter about 3 weeks ago for the April intake. Why are you not in May or June etc? Is it a religion/merit thing?
Confused
