    VAC wait times

    Looks like my application has been completed and approved recently, as I had sent and email on Sep 23 and they were still working on July 2019 case. Still have not seen a decision letter, but it shows as complete and the payment is in the current benefits page. Claim was for Compartment...

    VAC wait times

    There is "some move" on my vac claim. Basically, they split my compartment syndrome into 2, one for each leg. That`s about it. Step 3 was reached on Dec 2019.

    It's frustrating seeing their wait time average coming down while a lot of longer claims are still not completed... talking about many many weeks past that estimated wait time...

    VAC wait times

    Sent a message to VAC this week, received an answer this morning, the oldest common claims they are working on currently are dated at Feb 2019 (Stage 3, or decision stage).

    VAC wait times

    Big drop in estimated wait times this week. Went from 81 weeks down to 60 weeks for first applications. Hopefully lots of you guys got their claim dealt with! :) Or they just did a couple easy cases really quick to drop the average !

    This is apparently not correct anymore, they are looking at NOT merging IST and CST. Current rumor has it that D Sigs thinks it's not a good idea anymore. As such, implementation was delayed until Apr 2020. And as for the QS/TP (at least for dp1 and dp2, for Sig Tech), they are complete, we are...

    Bringing Military ID while travelling out of country on leave

    Showing my ID or saying to a US Border Agent generally stops all questioning and gives me instant entry into the US is the most I get out of my ID card while traveling. Not so much when returning to Canada sadly.

    Reserve Signals - what happens after trade training?

    Reviving this thread a bit. We are starting to see Res ACISS-Core be loaded into DP1.1 ISS courses. So there is an extra course at least, maybe they will open up more ?

    Army Communication & Information Systems Specialists (Sig Op, Lineman and LCIS Amalgamation)

    Lots of people are in that boat. Most of the guys I work with got at least their spec pay, though some of them were put into a lower pay level in the same rank(Should have been 4, they are 3) They were told to wait out until the PRZ note is removed then they will be able to act. As for me, i...
