Cool, I haven't heard anything from anyone getting letters so I'm in anticipation for something to happen.

My husband also has a medical clearance he is still waiting on but before he had even sent in all the information to the medical area about the his car accident 11 years ago, references had started receiving letters in the mail. We know that at least 4 people have received the references.

While on this topic, how do you contact the security clearance area to see if your clearance has went through? Ya, ya I know it has been posted before, use the search button, blah, blah, blah...I don't want to, I am being lazy.
you don't. OPM is not authorized to release such information
Yeah I believe you just conact your person at the FAA and check on security. I know that they called me about my medical (the medical division.. or whatever), so they said if I didn't hear from them within a week then my medical is cleared. So since it's friday and it's been about a week and a half.. Ima say my medical cleared, now just waiting on security to clear. :nana2:

As of Friday, I hadn't had my security clearance yet. AND, no letters have been sent to anyone yet either.

I was talking to my husband the other day....and i have a theory.
Boomer, what was the first letter of the last name on the people that you put down as referrences?
See, only half of my husband referrences have received any paperwork. As I started to think about it. All the people that had received the letters really quickly after had last names that started with B. The next ones started with K and they just received theirs a bit ago. The L, M and O last names still have not received theirs. I have wondered if they enter in all the referrals into a database and what they are a referral for and then they go through alphabetically and send out the referrals. I guess it is posible for them to go off individual last names too...but our last names starts with an H so I doubt we would have been one of the first to have reference letters sent out.

The lady that was interviewing me said they were writing everything down and had to enter it into the computer to send to, I think she said, either the facility manager or region manager with their recommendation. She commented that they (whoever reads what they enter) like to get a feel for the personality of the candidates. So, from the language and process she referred to it sounds to me like the final interview pass decision comes from someone else besides your actual interviewer.
Does anyone else remember their interviewer saying "I am definitely recommending you. Congrats"? (as mine did) or did they say "You passed, you're in."
My last name starts with T. My references start with B, C and R and my address reference starts with K. I haven't talked to the C because he is in OK City for Radar training and I don't want to bother him but all the rest had received and mailed back their forms by the beginning of last week.
I also had an issue on my medical that required further documentation. I tried calling several times to get clarification on what they needed me to send them but no one ever called me back. I finally faxed what I thought they needed last Tuesday so apparently that did not hold up my reference forms from going out.
If I have learned anything from this process it is that trying to find a logical explanation as to how this process flows is a fruitless effort.
My interviewer told me at the beginning of the interview that there was nothing I could say in there that would prevent me from getting the job. He basically told me if I couldn't answer a question then I should just go on talking about something. Thanks to this board I knew all the questions ahead of time so that wasn't a problem but I would say he spent about 75% of my interview time talking about himself.
