Thanks guys, I was told by my recruiter not to worry about the fact that I missed the date, as they usually do top ups after the selection board meets. Lets see how this pans out..

Speaking from experience, I personally was selected for my trade after the posted selection date (at least the one I knew about!)
Definitely a possibility!

Good to hear Kerry, you've had a long haul.

And then there's Moore, who seems to be flying through the process. Good to hear everyone!

As well as offstar1029. I consider myself very lucky at this point to have everything completed on the 20th as well as handing in my background check forms but I have a feeling I have a long wait ahead of me now. Good luck to everyone on your processes!

Not a avid poster, but I'd like to contribute to the Application Process Sample thread.

I moved to Canada from the United Stated in 2009.  So when I submitted my application, I had not lived in Canada for more than 5 years.  I believe this is why my Enhanced Reliability Check took so long.  However, I was Merit listed this week.

Good luck to everyone and have patience.  I hope everyone, including myself, soon gets the opportunity we've been hoping for.

Seeing as my only trade choice is MP I feel I'm moving along at a pretty steady pace.  I was talking to MP's in Borden and they informed me that they would be hiring like crazy soon, would anybody happen to know when MPAC usually runs around or is it a completely random thing?
