- Submit a written request for review to the Civil Service Commission within 30 days of notification of your disqualification.
- After reviewing your case, the Commission will decide whether you should be restored.
- If they decide that you should be reinstated, they will send a letter to the NYPD informing them of their decision.

One of the most common reasons for NYPD disqualification is psychological issues. Every applicant must go through a psychological test as part of the recruiting process at the NYPD.
If you are found to have any psychological issues, you will be automatically disqualified from the job. This does not, however, imply that you will never be able to work as a police officer.
You can still apply for other jobs in law enforcement or seek treatment for your psychological issue. Once you have been treated, you can then reapply to the NYPD and hopefully be successful the second time around.
