Preparing Application Package

[Willis]

First off, I just want to say that my thoughts are with the families and friends of the 4 officers that were killed in the line of duty this week. It must be an incredibly tough time for these people and I hope they can find a way to get through it.


I'm currently in the application process. I wrote the RPAT and now finding myself neck deep in finding out where I have been the last 10 years. I'm just so worried that I'm going to accidently leave something out. In any case I'm hoping to find out a few things from other applicants. For example, when they ask you to hand in 2 copies of Form 1897, is it ok to fill out one and just send them a photocopy of the second one? Or are they looking for two original copies? I don't want any mistakes to delay this process any further.

I'm not sure what they require. However, when I did my application, I filled out both copies by hand just in case.

You've made it thus far; the process is long enough without having your application being delayed by some silly technicality.

I was thining that. Thanks for your input.
