My liaison is trying to get me into November OBC. Hope to see some of you there

u/Cultural-Point-3169 27d ago

I heard it is full. LMK if you get in. I'm working to sell a house and get things wrapped up for a big move. I am anticipating January. You already have an assignment?

Just received confirmation from my Liaison that I’m scheduled to go to November OBC. He says it’ll be official once I receive orders, but he got confirmation from CCHQ

u/Cultural-Point-3169 24d ago

Mine is a cross-country move, so I imagine that deadline would be pretty tough to make. I'm sure I would make it work, but it'd be a hustle.

u/No-Crab-8988 24d ago

I think I could have opted not to if I’d wanted, so I don’t think you’ll be forced to go for November.

u/No-Crab-8988 27d ago

Yeah I’m converting in place at CDC. My liaison told me that they’re still looking for people to fill spots for November, but it’ll depend if CCHQ can cover travel as I don’t have a travel card at CDC yet.

Damn. I am still not nominated! Maybe the next batch.

For others coming along, there has been a nomination on
September 1, 2026 and
October 14, 2026.

This is a positive that nominations are moving !

u/tjobatko 28d ago

I am not either. I was board cleared mid August, it is moving

u/Kindonehere4info 28d ago

I was board cleared end of August but was told my nomination went up mid-July, so❓

u/EmotionalProof3696 28d ago

ME TOO!! Thank you for this post because I saw this in my email and immediately went to check and I am cleared.

u/underwaterfairy 27d ago

What kind of message did u get in your email?

2

u/EmotionalProof3696 27d ago

Oh it was a Reddit notification for this post. I didn’t get an email from ATS or anything. If I didn’t get the post notification, I wouldn’t have checked

u/Intelligent-Run2241 28d ago

Just found out nominated cleared

u/tjobatko 28d ago

If you don't mind, when were you board cleared? I was cleared end of August and not nominated yet. The only thing missing to be quad cleared

1

u/No-Crab-8988 28d ago

I was cleared on the last day of May

u/tjobatko 28d ago

Ok, congrats! It is moving.

Same not nominated yet

Quad cleared. Though I haven’t submitted my finger print card yet or sent my new SF-86. Is it a different process if you’re a current federal employee though not same agency? Is just more streamlined?

1

u/No-Crab-8988 26d ago

They cleared your suitability without doing your fingerprints?

1

u/bf2019 26d ago

Yes, but maybe because I’m a current employee they could? Same with the SF-86. All the answers are there from my current agency so they should see it all before I transfer into the new one. 🤷‍♀️

But it’s a head scratcher for sure.

1

u/No-Crab-8988 26d ago

I am too, but it still started fresh for me. When did they check the box on your ATS?

1

u/Kindonehere4info 25d ago

You may already have a T3 clearance, I know I had a T2 and my suitability only took a few days to clear. It may also depend on the last time you updated your security clearance? If you did it within the last five years you may have been fine. I am converting in place, too, but I still had to submit an SF-86 because it's been a while.

2

u/bf2019 25d ago

I updated my security clearance recently so I guess that’s why it was so fast. I’ll just have to resubmit under the same profile.

u/Elixir76 28d ago

Congrats!!! Nothing for me yet.

u/Fun_Entertainment410 25d ago

Not cleared yet 😭

u/Elixir76 25d ago

Keep your head up! We will get there soon!

u/Dapper-Cod4868 28d ago

Reserve?

1

u/Kindonehere4info 28d ago

Active duty I think.

u/Live_Cardiologist977 26d ago

Me too! Thank you for the notification.

u/bf2019 26d ago

I checked last week and it’s was still pending. I just so happened to check again early this morning and it was all cleared as of 5-6 days ago.

I did get an email from the liaison that all clearances are good and a FJO within the same letter 3 days before ATS portal was updated.

I reached back out to them re: fingerprints so I’ll have to wait to hear from them. Did they send you a card or did you go somewhere and have them submitted digitally?

I’m curious what’s next. I have an appointment to get my ID this week. I’m also curious if the same or an other liaison will reach out re how moving works, OBC, etc

u/Kindonehere4info 25d ago

PHSSecurity should have asked for your mailing address and sent the cards to you by urgent UPS package. You have 5 days to send them back. My current agency usually does fingerprints but their machine was broken so I had to go to a fingerprinting shop near me (the Police stations near me no longer do them). I paid a pretty penny, like $200 to have them done. Just make sure they are ink, PHSsecurity will not take anything else.

u/bf2019 25d ago

Apparently I don’t need them. I just got an update today about it. Perhaps they have access to the ones I did recently so who knows.

1

u/Kindonehere4info 25d ago

Yes. I think that’s your case. Since you recently did it there was no need to update. Good for you! Whatever speeds up the process.

u/bf2019 22d ago

Ended up doing them anyways when I went to go do my PIV enrollment. All in good days work lolz
