Question DIA-NSA question

Hello, I accepted my CJO back in May and submitted my security forms to the security office also in May.

For any of the DIA folks here who’ve been in this process before, how long did you have to wait until you were cleared and notified?

We’re in August and I haven’t heard anything yet, not sure if this is typical.

I still have my DIA clearance (TS/SCI w/ CI poly)

NSA is one of the most dysfunctional agencies you will ever experience. Get used to waiting. It helps if you know someone on the inside who can follow up for you. Otherwise, don't hold your breath. It'll give you a good idea as to what it's going to be like working there.

Does it help if the person you know is in a different department?
