Johnathon Greer You can search on previous posts about Scoliosis. Do you have a four year degree?

Johnathon Greer - You no longer have a clearance.
You likely still have clearance ELIGIBILITY. It depends on the clearance level, date of last investigation, etc. If the last investigation was completed within the last 2 years, then yes, you should still retain your eligibility for a clearance.

Johnathon Greer - Your recruiter was only TECHNICALLY wrong. But that technicality is important.
Clearance eligibility is the hard thing to get. Once you are found to be ELIGIBLE for a clearance, you just need to have a job which requires one to actually GET a clearance. So, if you were to join back up today, the paperwork would be sent in to activate your clearance. You wouldn't really have to do anything further - no additional investigation, etc.
Eligibility is what we pay people to investigate. Actual clearance is a statement as to whether or not your position entitles/requires you to look at / handle / process actual classified material.
The technicality is important, because saying you actually HAVE a clearance right now says that you have authorization to handle classified - which you do not. But you COULD have that authorization again with no further investigation once you are in a position requiring clearance, and the proper paperwork has been submitted.
I hope that makes sense.

Provided you meet all commissioning requirements, you must meet entry requirements for medical, CH2 AR 40-501 and the DoDI

You've been asking these types of questions in the past. What happened since the last time you posted a question?

I was let go because i had scoliosis, which i didnt know i had. But they said they was going to put down chapter 11 as failed PT (I think that's what they said). So now i want to reenter. I got my surgery and waited the 6 months and even 6 months after that putting my back to the test.
