That made me LMFAO. Anyways its a new fiscal year and being such the RC are probably bogged down with all the old applications of last year that are being reopened as well as new ones comming in its a busy time of year, especially for the RC. Just a tip from my experiance, I have never had a...

I agree with I, Citizen here... the Docter actually suggested that the age i was at (22) was around the perfect age because your eye is still young and healthy and has had less of a chance to develop problems that would complicate the surgery... once again just my experiance. Go talk to a DR

This is not 100% true if you are convicted of a crime within a year after you turn 18, your young offender record will be braught forward onto your adult record.

I am not currently going through for a trade that required an air crew medical but have went through a similar situation. I am 22 and went to LasikMD and they said to me that sometimes after surgery there is a chance of your eyes regressing (obviously the chance increases the worse your eyes...

Yeah that was really the point i was trying to get across to everyone, STAY MOTIVATED. As well i don't believe alot of members on the forum get the respect they deserve for the knowledge and experience they offer. So i just wanted a chance to hopfully motivate people and say thanks. Thank you...

Well its been over a year now and i am still as dedicated as i was the first day i walked into the RC inquiring about joining the Canadian Forces. As some of you may remember after many hurdles I have over come I came to another one just last month which is probably the biggest one since. It was...

As i mentioned i havnt got the letter yet. Its highly unlikely to be a credit issue as fingerprints are to determine criminal records. Thanks everyone again ill keep everyone posted on how it goes :)

I believe it is for a criminal background, I have done many things to show i am not the same as i was... such as volunteering even completing my grade 12 (although i dont expect points for something that shouldve been done years ago) I am in the middle of the paron process at the moment as they...

Today after almost a year of running around getting paperwork getting fingerprints done and doing anything els the recruitment center has asked of me, my journey has come to an end. I found out today that the results of my fingerprints came back and I have been declined my reliability status...

Its only 1:30 I'd give them a shout now... or call the 1800 national recruiting center and they'll be able to help you as well.... just some friendly advice :)

Also if you've been on the merit list make sure you check on your medical as well to make sure its fine, I know some people say its good for 2 years but I was told just like the merit listing your medical is only good for 1 year and then you just have to go in for a little update medical...

Thanks everyone for you're input I appreciate it

Yes I've always been honest theres no point in hiding things if they dont find out right that day theyll find out down the road... so i always found it better to be honest and show what ive done to learn and better myself from the mistakes ive made

Thank you CA, I've always appreciated the "bluntness" of your posts. But as I said im not looking for a way around the system just want to be educated in my options if the situation arises. I have been working/volunteering where I can and doing everything i can to improve my file to show them...

Hello everyone, Its been awhile since my last post and I'm still awaiting results of my fingerprints so they can decide on wether to grant me reliability status or not and then resume with my file...  I've had 2 interviews and I'm inching ever so close to getting on the merit list. Back on...
