I was in the same spot, they responded to me within the same week and gave me a date for medical , which i’m currently on hold for my sleep test results.

this was last week when they responded and gave me new date

Appreciate all the info bro. I sent those emails on Monday so we'll see if they get back to me this week. I may just send them again on Friday.

Did the drug test back in June. No medical email 

I'm in the same exact situation as you're in. I've also emailed Ms Vargas & RTO Employment. 16xx P/E on the 29th of June. According to this forum, if we were rejected we should have received a letter in the mail. I haven't gotten that letter either.

I’m just curious i’m not 15xx and haven’t been called for medical but you those of you in the 17s have and sworn in…….am I missing something?

I'm in the same position you were in. Did you email Ms Vargas? Did she actually respond? Low 16xx cert 2xx

Hey guys I have my drug test appointment tomorrow at 8am!!  Is wearing a tie necessary??  

Nope. Unless you're really into wearing one. 

So I got another call today from transit. But this call was for B/O. Does anybody know if I have to take the truck screen again? I did it less than a month ago for T/O. 

And like many people here I'm still waiting for that call to come in for the Medical. 16xx cert 2xx.

They Usually do Text, Call and Email

Much appreciated 👍🏾

Would someone be able to tell me how MTA contacts you for the medical? Is it a phone call or an email? Or both?

I just received the call, text, and email also it’s been so long I forgot my list number lol, I have to give my answer and all paperwork by next Thursday. How soon after turning it in do you think they will contact me to come in?? Does anyone have any idea?

Best guess is 2-6 weeks if your list number is above 1700.  I took my drug test on the 29th and I'm still waiting for the call to take the physical.  My list number is 16xx.  Good luck to you meng.  And to us all.

Good Morning Ladies and Gents. I hope everyone is having a great day so far. Anybody have any updates on the process?

Drug test on 6/29....still waiting too.  No updates on my end yet.  I figure it's gonna take a little longer (than normal) to get the call for the medical because of the way MTA staggered everyone in the for the P/E.  This statement is just my opinion and shouldn't be taken as gospel.  16xx

I got the call and text to come in but did not receive an email. The text says follow instructions on the email. Can someone tell me the instructions on the email so I won’t have a delay in processing 

Copied directly from the Email I got.  Hope this helps.

So what about everyone else that went this week? Updates?

16xx, cert: 2xx, I went in yesterday 06/29. Took about 2hrs to take the drug test. Then I was told to check my email for 90 days. You know, the usual stuff. 

For anyone interested. I just rolled into 180 for my pre-employment. There's not to many people here. Covid restrictions are being heavily enforced. Let's see how this goes. 

Been reading this forum today.  Is anyone due to report on 06/29 @ 12:15?  Or is it only me?

16xx, got my canvas letter Friday and now I'm due to report tomorrow 06/29 at 12:15. Well damn, I didn't expect to move this fast.

Congrats to everyone who got picked for this last go round. Hoping I’ll get called on the next round 16xx

16xx here.  Did you receive a Canvas letter yet?

1 hour ago, STtoMTA said:

The canvas letter is an email theyry send you with 2 phone calls (if you miss the first ) before you get called again for medical with them asking you if you still want the job (hence the name canvas) and with some more employment paperwork to fill out if you're still interested.  

Well I guess I'm gonna have to run down there to check if my info is still in their system. I haven't received any calls or emails. I've just been watching the Cival Exam list to make sure I'm being recertified.

Physical twice? I'm 16xx and only was called once for the drug test back in late 2018

Yessir, twice. Last time I was there was June  2019. They sent me home with a packet to fill out. But I haven't heard anything since then. 

Hey everyone.  I'm new to this forum and obviously very late.  Can someone explain what the Canvas letter is?  I've been to 180 twice now for the physical but haven't heard anything back yet.  16xx
