At the time I am eligible to retire, I will be 40 years of age. Due to previous military service, can/would the age limit of 37 be waived? I'm very interested in the career opportunity as an Air Marshall and would be honored to serve in such a capacity. If perhaps certain administrative documents were needed for granting an "exception to policy" waiver, I'd greatly appreciate any detailed information that could be given. Thank you.

The benefit is obviously the job. Since everyone had months of prep time prior to taking the PT test there should be no excuse to get less than good in any category. Also I have heard that at the end of the day when you are reffered for selections they fill school slots with people that have the best of the best... IE, best interview, best resumes, experience, and yes PT scores. The PT test is very important just like anything else in a job offer its effort that needs to get exerted for a benefit.

The reason being is because a federal agent in any department of justice job: I.E. DEA, ATF, FBI and the Marshals you have a mandatory retirement at the age of 57. So 37 is the age at which you can complete 20 years for your retirement. There is a lot of talk about making the feds retire at 65 and if so maybe they will up the age but most likely it will remain at 37.

What a great experience. I couldn't have asked for a better group of professional FAM's that worked out of the FO I tested at. I just completed my Panel, PTA and SAC interview and passed all.
