- These cases will be addressed as they arise. Currently, the only characters not eligible for employment in the Auror Office are squibs with no magical peculiar abilities, although exceptions could be made for non-field positions in which no magical ability is required.
- From an IC point of view, characters with peculiar abilities in place of standard wix magic will be tested on those separately as the need arises.
- The current application process will stay the same. New characters who are already employed in the British Auror Office will still apply and fill out the registration form as though it is a performance review - so it should be filled out at the current point in their career.
- The process is the same for aurors transferring from other countries.
- Aurors transferring from other countries have a three-month integration period to become familiar with the British Auror Office's policies and procedures.
- If they have not completed training with the office they are transferring from, they will be placed into the appropriate phase to finish prior to becoming a full auror.
