Can I appeal my Navy N3M waiver denial with new supporting documents?

Navy N3M waiver denied for RE-3G JFV a year ago, if I have new supporting documentation can I attempt to appeal if i choose to go to a recruiter again? I've been told no, but I've read that's a personal choice for the recruiter. They told me that Navy doesn't fight Navy. With Genesis I feel like it would be additional supporting proof as well that I am cleared of an acute" Adjustment Disorder." It has been a total of 3 years.

Contact one of these three gentlemen... they are very knowledgeable in Military related questions/issues.

You can always appeal, it is the likelihood you should not get exited about. As for recruiters thier obligation to meet quota is how the select recruits to place in the military. By quota, it is a numbers game, if your case is challenging and requires a great deal of time to support, then the recruiter will select recruits with a greater chance of success in acceptance.

If your local recruiter is too busy seek about another. Again, waivers and appeals are not often supported based on other qualified applicants. Good luck.

If your waiver was denied by the navy, it’s because your condition did not meet the standards set forth in DoDI 6130.03 and you had more than a single occurrence of the adjustment disorder. Behavioral health conditions are normally never waived given their complexity as well as the likelihood of recurrence

I would say that you can certainly try. However, I caution you to realize you will more than likely be told no again. The Navy already rejected a waiver once, it will more than likely do it again. You're looking at 2 waivers. One for the RE Code and one for the JFV. That's two waivers you're going to need. Again, you can try. Just don't get your hopes up.

Waiver for RE-3G, waiver for JFV and a waiver for enlistment. Genesis system is going to add additional time to the process. You would be better served to try National Guard, and Lat to another branch. I know this sounds extensive, but right now with draw down of forces it would be your best bet. A lot of Navy, Army, Marine Corps, and Air Force recruiters won't help you right now. Genesis messed up a lot of the process and the quotas are not modified accordingly.

You'll have to go to your nearest recruiting station and ask - but it seems like you were already given the answer when you said "they told me the Navy doesn't fight the Navy." Who is "they?"

Can a denied waiver be appealed though?

You can resubmit if you have new documentation but it will be an uphill battle. With this being multiple issues to include mental health your paperwork needs to be ironclad. You need to put yourself in their shoes. They are pretty strict when it comes to waivers for BH issues. The risk is high for pre-existing issues to come back up under the stress of entry level training.

There are already some good answers on this subject. I was never in the Navy, but did 3 years in Army Recruiting Command a LONG time ago. My experience was that command wanted recruiters to work on fully qualified applicants first, then on those who had realistically waiverable problems. Also, messages came out frequently about various alterations or guidance. Anyone who is not currently in Recruiting Command would not have the most up to date information. So gather your information including all the regulations you can find, and have a talk with the recruiting station commander. Meanwhile here is a releavant website from Navy Recruiting Command which may be helpful
