I've fixed them, now I fly them!
No that just means we can expect that around that month, there could be some still available before than. Just don't put place your bets on it.

jfav313- that's fantastic. Congratulations. Just curious, which selection board did you submit through?

jfav-I'm jealous of you haha did you have MEPS and the NASIS done prior to the board convening?

It seems like only SWO's are waiting... I'm NFO and still haven't heard anything. I was PQ for the board and started my clearance a few days after getting pro rec.

FINSEL: 07-14 OCS (SNA)
I'm SNA and waiting as well, PQ before the board with an active clearance, so you're not alone lol. I would like to know how they go about assigning dates though...

I found out I'm waiting on a waiver now. SNA but I apparently failed depth perception at meps. Went to an optometrist and got retested and and just found out this week that that waiver has to get approved before I can get a finsel. Is anyone else in a similar situation? Do those usually get approved? I'm guessing about a month for the waiver to come back...

I had to get a waiver for my refraction(how well I can see) the waiver came back signed in about a week or two). I don't know if depth perception is the same or not.

SNFO just got a word that my OCS date will be OCT 27, NRD Raleigh.

All day, every day!
Yeah, I had PRK, failed depth perception, had to return to MEPS and it took them nearly 3 months to even fit me in. I had given them 2 years worth of eye exams and 1 extra eye exam taken before they would even let me in, which stated that I have perfect depth perception. They still required an optometrist consult after the initial MEPS run-through before telling me I passed visual.
In my case, N3M initially didn't want to issue any waivers but it appears they're reconsidering. It can take a long time, especially for your recruiter to even get anybody at N3M to talk to them. It seems like somebody on our side (recruiter's side of the office) or N3M is out every single day this last week. You would think they would be better with the whole phone tag thing, but I've found that getting any paperwork done (with any agency, government or otherwise) is kind of like Sisyphus rolling the stone up the hill. The only advice I can offer is not to stress out too much and try to do something you enjoy. It'll get done eventually, just probably not in your ideal schedule. Occupy yourself in the meantime.
Clever analogy... obviously, you didn't sleep through your college English Lit course(s)!

Thanks for the responses. My OR said the waiver has been submitted so I'm just playing the long version of the waiting game for my finsel. Its been over a year already so what's a couple more months.
