I took the us customs test in 2002 did the whole process was offered a job out west declined it because i wanted to stay in the northeast. In the past month I have been contacted about a position in Vt. and they are updating my information now. But unless you want to work in AZ, NM, or somewhere out west don't expect to hear from them.

They seem to be making a lot of changes between Customs, INS, Border Patrol and there are quite a few different law enforcement jobs in this area. They are ICE now, and I still see INS, Customs badges etc. Anyway this is the website they use and there is info here about jobs. Don't know if this is much help but here it is.

I have been in the process for a long time. I took the test in Dec. 2002. They are starting to hire individuals all over the U.S. Anywhere there are openings they are trying to fill them. CBP is putting over 1200 people to FLETC in the next coming year. But with a list of 4,000+ qualified candidates that will only be a few of them. They select qualified individuals by your preferences, test date, clearing date(when your background is complete), etc. Since you took your test in Dec. 2003 you still have a way to go. They are still hiring individuals from the Dec. 2001 test. This has been a very long and stressful process never knowing when the call is coming. Just stick in there it will come eventually.

Well then that is better for you, you not as far back. When did your background clear? Do you have some sort of timeline? Medical, SI, Background, etc.

Are you talking about the CBP Officer position or the ICE Agent positions?
