Quiet for the last few days on the self reporting thread.

There were no appointments last week... hopefully we're due for a "gust" of appointments this week and next week!

Does anyone know if you receive an email notifying an update in the portal? I just want to know if I can stop checking my portal everyday and patiently await an email instead

From what I heard, people are not getting an email, just a random portal check and the decision letter is there.

I didn't get an email, it just showed up in my portal when I checked.

Same for my DS....

Got an email, but it went straight to my junk mail instead of my inbox, so I didn’t see it until after the portal check.

I was lucky enough to receive a call from my nominating MOC a couple of days before the decision letter showed up in my portal, but it would've definitely been frustrating if the email had gone to my spam. I might've not ever have seen the email.

Candidates beware the ides of March …

Two week warning?

Two week warning?

I think they are just saying that is the time period when a heavy amount of appointments are given! Let’s hope for the best!

Beware the Ides of March. But Why? | HISTORY

These upcoming two weeks? Or a heavy release of appointments in two weeks? I know…patience

Will candidates be notified if they are placed on the waitlist?

Surprised none went out today

Surprised none went out today

They are probably waiting for mid-march to release them all.

We were checking the portal this morning, and we realized that the Withdrawal Application link was gone. Decisions are coming!!!
