If I change my mos to counterintelligence I heard I get investigation for Top Secret Clearance with Poly, but thing is, is it hard to get it because I'm immigrant? If passed my Secret Clearance, I dont think it would be problem, but I just wanna know if they fail me because I'm immigrant?

Being an immigrant does not make you fail your investigation for security clearance. Not being an American Citizen is a reason for a fail on a clearance.

The largest hurdles you will have to navigate is the "continued foreign contact" and "family members who work for a foreign government" portions of the SF-86. Remember that this includes social media contact. Depending on the extent, it could impact the amount of time it takes to adjudicate your clearance request.

Also, CI was a great career for me. If you have a language it will be better. FYI, I was in Korea last week.
