    Can I ask what way does the medical work do you pay the doctor and then claim it back.

    Does the doctor need to send of the form to the CMO or can you send it yourself.
    Thanks

    The doctor sends the form off. It must be a doctor on the list provided.

    You can claim the doctor fee later on.

    The hearing test will cost you though.

    Hi all, in relation to vetting, does anyone know if this goes to the Gardai or to someother crowd? I'm reliably informed my vetting has not gone to the Garda vetting unit and I did my interview in June. I was onto IPS about a month ago and I was told its not back yet!

    You get a list of doctors to go to, but the IPS pay for it and the doctor sends both off for you. If I were you I would get the hearing test done first and then bring that to the doctor and he will send both of them off. You have to pay for the hearing test.

    Did you get an email to say you passed the medical or a letter? I done my medical at the end of November and haven’t heard anything as of yet.

    I got an email to say I passed medical and a invitation to PCT. All in the one email.

    Ah very good. I’m still waiting to hear results of medical but the doctor said I passed anyway, whether that makes a difference or not!?

    I'd say your good. As far as I know, CMO will contact you if there's a problem and if you haven't heard anything by now I'd say your good to go. IPS probably just waiting on numbers and sorting logistics for PCT before getting in touch.

    Well done on passing,

    You can ring IPS they can give you a good guide line. I would say PCT either march or April then training in the end of summer(if you're lucky).......but doesn't really matter about the oom number it's all about your security clearance for your start in the IPC.

    Think the training is every 2 months, so

    Jan
    March
    May
    So on

    Happy New Year Folks !! Heres hoping for some speedy security clearance soon.
