Is that weekly or biweekly? I will probably be taking public transportation down there every day if I can't save enough for a car and insurance by July

You can't rely on that nobody takes public transportation there get a buddy and carpool bcuz once you're split up your going somewhere diff everyday almost randalls island, totten, rotations so a car would be reliable if u can swing it by July
 
and fyi I asked about July academy and they did tell me it starts 1 week after we graduate
 
The way you guys go nuts over this job I always assumed that the pay was much better.

I went in a little over a week ago for my intake, had sent some papers to my investigator on Monday overnight to her. When should I hear back from her? Should I call her to make sure she received it? What's the next step?

Thank you for your opinion, I called to make sure it was received. I know it's a slow process but didn't want to seem like I was pestering her.
 
Hey folks any idea what exactly goes into a "statement of support and activity from self". I guess I can put the jobs I've had but what else are they looking for. Thanks for any shared advice.

Statement of how you supported yourself. I am assuming you held multiple part time positions that do NOT show full time hours? If parents have helped support you after high school then your investigator will need a statement from them too

Not a problem bro, it's best to be certain than to leave things to chance sometimes. I'm not saying call your investigator multiple times to confirm the same documents are in. However if anything happens be sure to update your investigator. It looks better on you if you approach your investigator than hiding it until they find out on their own.

Not a problem bro. They just want to know how you supported yourself. Don't get too into detail on your employment. Just state how you supported yourself and you're good
 
Weird how they ask for that even after showing social security paperwork of employment. Oh well.
