    Hey all, anyone who applied to this bid and had their ATSA cancelled due to Covid? I had seen a few responses a couple months back but was wondering if anyone had an update. In late September I received an email saying it would be a couple of months but that we'd be able to retest. Can anybody confirm that?

    I opted not to test due to the pandemic and got probably the same type of responses you received. After a while it was just radio silence until I found out they re-used my old test score automatically. I'm guessing that sadly the retesting will get pushed into the next bid.

    Good luck to whoever my investigator is. I've had many jobs in the past decade. I could be off the mark but I couldn't imagine them wasting resources trying to verify some info from a job I had in 2010 when literally nobody who I knew there is still there, all the way up to a store manager lol. Seems like it would serve them better just to check references I listed plus the "major" jobs a person spent a lot of time at.

    I was thinking the same thing. Why would they waste time trying to get people to reply on a summer job I had 10 years ago. Plus those people don’t even know me

    Welp MMPI just cancelled a second time. Was originally suppose to take it the beginning of the month and that got cancelled. Was rescheduled for tomorrow but just got cancelled again because their computer needs to be updated..

    That makes sense I’ve seen a few people saying the same thing. This would be my first time taking it though so unfortunately I don’t have a previous result for them to use to place me. Hmm. Guess I’ll just keep following up periodically

    Did they say why it was cancelled this time?

    What happens if they don’t get anything back from an employer? Some of the places I’ve worked at have closed for good

    I wouldn't stress too much about it. My last employer pre FAA was an online company with 4 of us working for 1 guy (everyone was family besides me). On a random Friday he shut down the business with 2 hours notice. Never answered my calls or emails again and never paid out a ton of vendors to the tune of somewhere in the low 7 figures and filed for BK. It was like that show American Greed if you have seen that. My clearance took much longer than anyone I know of but I was still cleared at the end of the process and 3 in person interviews. My clearance actually took so long I had to do my medical again before getting to the Academy since it lasts 2 years. So unless your former employers closed on some really weird terms I wouldnt stress it.

    Can someone either tell me or point me in the right direction of a post with a timeline of dates for TOL, EODS, CIL and so on? I’ve been going back page by page and either I overlooked it or I just didn’t go back far enough, but regardless I’m getting tired of going back page by page. It is much appreciated!

    If you look at people's signatures below their posts a lot of them have the timeline there. Even on this page 2 people have it as their signature. You can't see them on mobile sadly, however.

    Ahh yeah I see it now on my desktop. That would’ve saved a headache. Thanks!

    You can actually see it on mobile if you turn your phone sideways!

    All has been quiet on the CIL front for me

    At least one of my references got a letter from the DoD in regards to my background investigation. However, he texted me and said he got 2 and they are identical. Anybody know why and if he should fill both out? I'm erring on the side of "yes" lol.

    You doesn’t have to fill any of them back. They don’t all get returned

    Going on the 4th week of EODS submittal w/ no approval yet, hope to hear something by the first week of 2021. Everyone's probably on holiday break.

    it probably doesn't matter if he fills out both. just have him fill out both and turn it in, there's nothing to lose and it takes 5 extra minutes. you're overthinking it

    EODS finally received!

    Odd question. So when I filled out my EQIP, my manager at the time (Manager A) got laid off shortly afterwards. Manager B (new guy) is aware of my situation.
    Employment form came today for Manager A... anyone know if it would be an issue for Manager B to fill out?

    I doubt it’d be an issue and even if it was, I’m sure they’d just question you and you could explain exactly what you said here. Or just have him fill it out and send it back and then email your security contact letting them know what’s up ahead of time. When did you submit your eqip? I submitted mine on dec 4 and my employer hasn’t gotten anything yet so I’m just curious of your timeline
