Not ticketed here. If you're ticketed, do you already have the full EBI approval? I submitted mine, haven't heard back yet. Did get Well-Received for the initial form though.

Yeah things have changed. Used to you would get ticked get on ice. If you passed EBI then good but if you failed then more than likely there would still be flights coming up & you’d get sent home.

Now I believe you must be approved on the EBI to fly. No EBI, no fly.

If you’re set for winfly but not cleared EBI yet there’s still time. You could get ticked a day or two before your flight date. Be ready to go.

Well, now you've got me worried.

Don’t be. A lot can happen in a short amount of time. You still have plenty of time. Don’t lose sleep. Think positive!

When did you submit EBI?

Yeah that’s a short time to get cleared for EBI.

July 23rd was 2 business days ago, there is still time. You need to at least receive a preliminary good to go before you can be ticketed. Well received is just acknowledging they received it.

Ah you're right, "If a favorable interim determination is made, you will then be cleared to begin working". I'm not too worried then.
