I had a long first poly, and a very short second poly. After the first one, I was asked whether I'd be willing to come back for a third if I were asked to do so. I responded that I would be willing.
The second poly was quick and easy.
I've heard that a fair number of people are being asked to return for 3rd polygraphs, but I'm not sure whether that usually happens before the file is sent to adjudication or soon after so that the file is removed from adjudicaiton.
My application was pulled about a month after it went into adjudication because they wanted a 3rd poly.
I called in Feb just to check on the status and was told by my PO that they wanted a 3rd poly, but that they were backed up and didn't know when one could be scheduled. I asked whether this was a matter of weeks or a month, and my PO responded that it should be weeks, but that I should call if I hadn't heard anything in a month.
I called again in March, and my PO said that they are changing how 3rd polygraphs are being handled and processed; they're being handled by another party now, so it's out of my PO's hands. When I asked whether the delay would be weeks or months, my PO said, "weeks, at least".
I hope that you're able to get resolution more quickly than that. I HIGHLY recommend that you make sure that you have something else to do during the process. I didn't and, though it's my dream job, sometimes I do feel like stepping away from the process and reapplying in a few years. |

where you are coming from. However, after my office visit on the third day, after walking around the office and meeting my future boss, there is no way in hell I am turning back now. A third poly does in fact make you question the process and the validity of the poly...but I am in this for the long haul. Thanks for the advice...while waiting I plan to study spanish (15 levels) and my job will keep me very busy.
