Random question - do you get interviewed for your clearance prior to OCS? I submitted SF86 in October and haven’t heard anything

There's a possibility that you might get a temporary clearance while they finish the investigation. The investigator that spoke with me about a month ago started out the entire conversation by apologizing for how long it took to get back. It was also a teleconference and not an in-person interview because they were so short-staffed. (I got my SF-86 forms filled and submitted back in October, so there was a four-month lead time.)

YMMV, but I wouldn't be concerned if I were you.

Cool, thanks! Just sitting around waiting and wondering about everything. And I mean everything.

So, after (almost literally) throwing my medical records at N3M, they finally were happy with what I gave them. The rest of my APSR is now being routed up the chain for final clearances while they make their final decision. Looking in more detail at my (full) medical records, it reads even better than what the doctor initially told me.

For anyone dealing with long wait times through medical, if you're getting close to the deadline, you can have your recruiter bump your referral to URGENT and you will get an answer in 24 hours. However, you may find it difficult to get this escalation unless you're actually at risk of missing a deadline.


Holy crap, I think I actually made it.

Me too, especially since my scores are a little towards the bottom unfortunately

I think you’re fine. While not perfect, you’re still competitive. You gotta remember that most of the people here and on the spreadsheet have higher scores than average- or at least that what it seems like.

We're also generally better-informed than those who submit on their own. We have each other as sounding boards, as well, so hopefully our packets are more appealing.

That’s what I’ve been curious about. Obviously immediate select is gonna have some impact. Though my recruiter told me I have nothing to worry about- this is different

Im curious if anyone knows this. Would obtaining a PPL allow for another submission to the board without retaking the test? My recruiter says he thinks so but i may need to do that. Would give me 2 more submissions if this one fails.

Do you get an email after you package is officially submitted? I finished everything last week and my recruiter says there isn't anything I can do at the moment but have not heard anything since.
