This video was awesome. I followed her instructions and had no issues getting my MMC and 2 year medical certificate. I submitted my application on October 3rd 2023 and had my documents in hand by November 6th 2023.
I’m trying to figure this all out do you have instagram or anything I can contact to see how you did it I mean she giving good pointers and everything but I actually want to talk to somebody and really know or just a a real one on one
@@Realisticloner it actually was fairly quick. I applied to the Houston union hall in August. Within a week of submitting the application they called me and had me come down to do the written and math test. Then they scheduled my physical and drug test. I already had a TWIC and passport so all I had to Still get was the MMC and 2 year medical certificate.
Giiiirllll, you's a life saver! Ty soooo much, I need to do this in order to work for a cruise and wanted to know just how complicated the whole thing was gonna be. It felt like a friend was explaining the whole process to me and was easy to follow. I'll be subscribing!
Hey you guys if you have any questions don't be afraid to ask also I know sometimes I'm not very clear but just to clear things up you send this application to the rec center near you along with your medical certificate info I got mine in like 3 in a half months so just make sure everything is correct
GIRL THANK YOUUUUU! I haven't got to this step yet because I just applied for my passport. But I def. added this to my playlist as a reference for later. Thank you for breaking it down. And I just subscribed. Looking forward to seeing more content on how your journey unfolds as I begin mine. 💖
Thanks for the information. I have a question after i finish the application, i need to send my medical certificate, and can ido my medical certification with regular doctor? Or i have to go to someone special.
yo thanks for the help quick question we are only checking original entry right??we dont have to check original STCW as well right??thanks for the help once again:)
awesome thank you for replying god bless you 1 other thing during the CG physical are they going to like want to draw blood for blood test ect.?? I saw your other vid right now and they took your blood :(?
@@stuartcasal5044 so yeah they do draw blood but it’s not really common sometimes they might sometimes they won’t most of the time tho they just make you pee in a cup and your good
I had class B misdemeanor DWI convictions from 2004 and 2010. I submitted the 719-C convictions statement form, copies of my original court dispositions/conviction paperwork, and went to my county clerk office and got certified/officials stamped criminal records search which shows that I have completed all probation requirements, paid all fines, and my cases were officially concluded. I submitted all this paperwork with my normal 719B application and had no issue getting my mmc.
@@benjaminbrown45 Benjamin you gave me hope! I was also convicted around 2005. I have appointment to get my records next week. So I send the the records along with the forms?
@@amorzz100 yes. Basically they just want to see that you took care of it and that you don't owe money and did all the probation stuff, alcohol/drug rehab, etc. If they need any other documents they will email you and tell you what to do. You can also call the IASKNMC number
Yeah I sent like 5 at a time I just took a picture using my phone put it in pdf form and then sent it to them through email also make sure you label what your sending like the name of the form
I got you with the video but in order to get your med cert you gotta do the coast guard physical and drug test first you can really just look up places that do coast guard physicals near me and just call them schedule a appointment and everything else should be taken care of at the appointment
@@lowlifesailor9042 Thank you for all the info you have shared. I have a question. I pay for the medical certificate first before the MMC forms? we pay seperately for them? THe medical cert is like 150. Does that cover the MMC too or is that another expense? IF so how much all together? Thank you very much
@@alfjones6377 so all together it’s around 1500 but the schooling is free in order to get your endorsements so that your able to sail but you pay for your twic separately you pay for your drug test and physical separately you pay for your passport mmc and med cert separately
@@lowlifesailor9042 I already did the STCW 5 day test in Jacksonville. I paid 1k for that. Paid for my TWIC yesterday. So for MMC and passport with the physical certification and drug test it will cost like 1500 altogether? Thank you for your reply btw.
did you have to buy the mmc book before you sent it in ? i watched another video and she said you gotta send the receipt for it in as well but i believe she turned it in physically
Yes/no so there is a issuance fee you have to pay it’s like 140 on pay.gov once they send the receipt to your gmail you screenshot it and turn it into pdf form once you do that you send it in with the rest of your mmc applications through gmail you don’t have to be their physically
To find the gmail you send everything too for your mmc you go on the coast guard website and ask the live chat person that’s what I did it was quick and efficient I promise the website link: www.dco.uscg.mil/nmc/merchant_mariner_credential/
Honestly i didn’t have to worry about the stcw courses Siu took care of it but as far as everything else I got my twic first then my coast guard physical then I just applied for and original mmc
@@lowlifesailor9042 on the real low if i didn't look at your ch i had to write down wiper OS food handler ete i think i got to fax my application to the REC in NYC i can't submit it in physically
I did not put the wiper ,ordinary seaman, food handlers, and 2 year medical certificate on my application. I also did not notarize my application. Should I reprint out the application and send it back in?
