September 2014 IDC Board

Is that seriously what takes so long for some people to get their FINSEL letter? The clearance?
I got PRO REC'd on June 11th and still have not received my FINSEL - Some threads on AW suggest about a four months wait from the time you are PRO REC'd. I think this is due to a budget issue. However, since the new FY started, I speculate that the process from PRO REC to FINSEL should hasten.

When I was Recruiting, JPAS did not have to complete the investigation, only open it. But yes this process can take some time to complete. Especially medical. The FINSEL is issued when they have reserved an OCS class seat (date) for you after your professional recommendation. Some designators have a priority fill status and others are back logged significantly for OCS. This process also feeds into the quotas for subsequent boards after they rack and stack. For example, with the previous IDC board, they may try to weed out RTO's and those who are not medically qualified from the Pro-Y list before they release the results for this board based on the remaining quotas. You will find that they may very well release an Alternate Select list. Many times those individuals will move significantly up the list turning into a PRO-Y long after the results have been released.

Since it is going so slow, I check this thread during lunch. Today was better than usual. Coffee, Jim Rome, and puzzles from Airwarriors? Awesome.

Nice! I just Googled "Very Hard Sudoku" and grabbed that puzzle. :cool:
 
I leave for four hours for a trial and come back to 150 additional kits, a longer prospective wait time for results, and the possibility of the December board being postponed until March. I'm never leaving again!

They changed the investigation thing after we left, so IDC have to have more than just "open" to get a FS.

They did the alternate thing before, that is one thing that screwed a few boards, they didn't have the drop off rate they thought they would and all those alternates were the next FY selects, oops.
