A few of you with wedding/vacation plans have inquired about getting an accommodation; here is the information (see below).
The new test day will likely be after 8/23, not the original test date of 8/16.
Email: testingaccommodations@dcas.nyc.gov
They want the following put into the email as well as the reason:
Name:
Address:
SS#:
Exam Name:
Exam #:
telephone#:
email address:
Tell them that you relied on the 8/16 date and made plans because of it and it will cost you significant hardship. For those who planned a vacation your hardship is "financial"; i.e. you can't get a refund
The only possibility would be clear error on the part of DCAS... but they fixed that error 3 months in advance... the same thing happened with 2013 sgts exam as well
Thats great but thats not listed as a reason on the NOE to get an accomodation.
DCAS will consider requests outside the usual guidelines for this exam since they jumped the gun in posting a test date. I know of a few people who are in the process of getting an accommodation and their requests are under review--I'll post an update if it's approved or denied (one of them is for a costly family vacation).
Yep, i know a person who had to rebook a vacation and it cost him more money. Thats the way the cookie crumbles. A NOTICE OF EXAMINATION is a legal document and i dont think the city wants to end up in court for every LTS exam. So send out another NOE with a make up test reason being a vacation sceduled prior to the first amended NOE or deny these requests due to the impending **** storm
