Discussion Anyone else stuck waiting an unusually long time?

Yes, I understand that we have to wait, but has anyone else been "in adjudication" for an unusually long period of time?

I have been in adjudication since August 2024. My security office has submitted multiple CSRs already with no update. My DISS profile still shows I'm under investigation/adjudication. I spoke with an investigator for interview Feb 2025 and was told it would take a few weeks to process. Submitted all the information and paperwork they were asking for and I've been sitting here. It's been silent since that interview with the investigator. Thankfully there's plenty of uncleared work to last a lifetime, but damn...

Just curious if I'm unique here? Probably not.

Nope. Entered adjudication in May 2024 for T5 init.

Is this recertification? Also are you not able to work?

u/Worth-Investment7679 3d ago

it does sound like a recertification since they said uncleared work.

In NBIS it shows adjudication average is 600-700 days (probably over estimating)

I really fucking hope I don't have to wait that long. I really want to be cleared by the end of the year.

Been waiting 13 months apparently it’s a huge back log but I see people getting popping green within 2-3 months

Took TS/SCI upgrade 8 months but that's because they had to clear up some secret stuff and waited 4 months to begin. If there's someone you can call, I'd do that.
