The time varies. Really hard to say and can be anywhere from 30 days to months. May help if your background is basic.

If your family is American and has minor to no criminal activity, about 6 months. If you have family located in countries that’s aren’t associated with NATO or have relationships with foreign nationals in places that the State Department doesn’t like, much longer,

You don't upgrade unless the job requires it. You can't just apply for one.

It has been submitted last week

Took mine 2 years

TS/SCI/codeword took 6 months for me when I was in.

That is so unfair. I can only imagine how discouraging this must be for you.

Without your military experience, how many more years do you need to qualify for you the project management job?

I am a traditional reservist so I never really used military benefits before, but could use advice here.

I am currently renting and my lease is not up until October 2021, however I found a good deal on a home and scheduled to close in June 2021.

My landlord will not work with me to end the lease early, so it looks like I will have to double up on rent and mortgage through the summer.

If I went on active duty orders, can I use those orders to break my lease early without penalty?

For those of you who got out at 10, do you wish that you rode it out to 20? I’m at a crossroad and I’m not sure what to do. Have some active/reserve time, wrapping up graduate school, and am now considering either a) come back to the business world or b) go active and retire before 50 and live off a nice pension. Obviously there are draws to both. I’m an officer for what it’s worth so I can realistically retire at O-5, MAYBE O-6.
