    Fingerprints ( merged )

    The more i read the more i think that it is worth the extra oney as finger prints at the opp only cost 26.50 and these digital ones cost 50. But the cut in time seems worth it. As well for anyone in my shoes that is reading this and is curious what digital prints are and are in the same boat as...

    Update. (Also another question inside and a long read)

    I believe it is because of my record its not a usual part of the process but it could take 5 weeks could take a year nobody has a definitive answer i dont really see why this is important as you have to get it done at basic anyways so if anyone coul shine some light on that itd be perfect.

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    Yes thank you for the clarification, say for example you get an overall score of 27 on your first test and you dont like that and rewrite it in 90 days and score say a 20 they take the 20 as your score and if that reduces the occupations that are available to you thats the risk you run. Like...

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    To further answer this after writting the test the first time there is a 90 day waiting period before you can rewrite it the second time. NOTE: If you score lower on the second test, it doesnt matter that is score so take the time prepare and rock it the first time. Also after the second time...
