The Central Applicant Self Service (CASS), a Web-based application available to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) job applicants via the CBP public Web site, was moved back into production on March 6, 2006, at the request of the Office of Human Resources Management (HRM). This system was originally built for HRM in 2002 and has been off-line over the last year or so at the direction of HRM. The latest version of the application includes modest enhancements requested by HRM and synchronizes CASS data with the Interactive Voice Response System (or "IVR") used by HRM at their Minneapolis, Minnesota, HRM field office. The data for CASS is provided by that same office.

The system provides entry-level applicants (GS-05/07) with the status of their job applications with CBP, ICE, or USCIS on-line via the web. CASS data is limited to the following job titles:

• Adjudication Officer

• Ag Specialist

• Border Patrol Agent

• CBP Officer

• Criminal Investigator

• Deportation Officer

• Detention Enforcement Officer

• Immigration Agent

• Marine Enforcement Officer, and

• Pilot

If you applied for an entry-level position for one or more of these jobs, you can see the status of these requirements: pre-employment forms, qualifications, medical exams, fitness test, structured interview, drug screening, background investigation, and schedule report date. You also have access to a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) document, which provides more specific details on the application process.

Please note that you will not be in the system until you have been referred on a certificate, selected and issued a Tentative Selection Letter. ( Central Applicant Self-Service (CASS) Program )
