Hi all,
I just went for my CFAT today and passed with flying colours. I'm applying to Infantry 031 and Combat Engineer 043. When I applied on Sept 30 I was told by the recruiter that if all went smoothly I could be off to basic around Xmas or just after the new year. But, after my CFAT today when I comfirmed my trade choices with the recruiter I was told that the earliest I could expect to get an offer would be April 2006 if everything went smoothly.
I know that every applicant is different and sometimes things come up that can delay you. I've read the thread "Application process samples" and it seems that lots of people who applied in the past few months for reg force combat arms were off to basic after 3-4 months.
I will definitly wait until April if that's how it has to be. I'm just wondering if anyone else has applied recently for any of the combat arms and was given a general idea of how long the wait would be, I'd like to hear it.
Mike
