So the drug test is scheduled separately from the medical? I only scheduled my medical thinking it was part of it. Does the medical place typically do the drug tests..or do you go somewhere else depending on your location?
You go somewhere else you pee in a cup at the medical as a diabetes test
 
Does it matter where we go? I didn't see anything on my email about where to go for the drug test just a list of medical examiners and the forms to fill out before you go
Schedule your medical, send in the form when you have an appointment date. Then they'll send you an email back confirming with the number to call and schedule a drug test. I was able to schedule mine on the same day as my medical. Went to my medical at 1030, ate lunch then took my drug test at 1300

On the MedXpress under occupation, we put our current occupation and not Air Traffic Controller Trainee, correct? Just want to make sure I'm not messing anything up.
 
So emailed my security POC cuz it’s been more than 10 business days since my CIL but no response yet. When should I follow up

I would just try calling during early morning business hours tomorrow. I'm sure it's different for each one, but my security poc was always pretty easy to get a hold of on the phone for any inquiry.
 
can you take the drug test before the physical or does it have to be after?I assume it doesn't matter..

I had the drug test today and physical in on Tuesday. Instructions said "within 5 days". It did not specify within 5 days following the exam. So I did it within 5 days before the exam.
 
The instructions "within" means before or after med appointment. Confirmed with medical.


As long as your drug test is taken within 5 days of your physical exam you are okay. However, I would caution on taking the drug test prior, in case your medical exam has to be reschedule by either yourself or the AME.

Did my physical, drug test, and MMPI today. Manager was kind enough to give me an hour long tour of the tower and the approach/departure room. Was notified that I cleared security as well so now I guess the next step is to just wait.

Is EODS the next step or is that the OF-306 that we already filled out? I see that some people who got their TOL this week got EODS and CIL as well.

Well damn. That's a fast security conditional. I don't even know if my past employers sent back the questionnaires yet.
