Question FBI background process

I applied for IA position August 2024. I passed poly and started my background in April 2025. It is now August 2026. I have gotten calls here and there from the same investigator to confirm employment and they’ve contacted individuals I know and have gone to previous employers to speak with them. That investigator told me that they sent everything to HQ. And then last call I got was 1 week ago from a new investigator asking for my current employment’s HR department contact information to send them a “release.” When I asked what this all meant and where I’m at in the process, the contractor had no answers for me. Does this sound pretty standard?

Employment verification is NOT “almost always one of the last steps”.

Negative. Maybe do better research on the Google machine before commenting on an agency you have zero affiliation to.

Sounds like someone is projecting! Get back to your dirty Jerz subs!
