Last I heard you could get a security clearance once you re-enlisted but the background check might take over a year (10 year history?). What is the latest memo for MAVNI? 2017-10-07T19:01:58-04:00 Norah Julmis 2979403 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>This is for those that are already US Citizens and have been in several years.

I do know that it can take over a year to get a clearance issued. First thing is to make sure you are completely honest on your application and don&#39;t have any bad credit issues. If you&#39;re going for a Secret Clearance you only have to go back 7 years. A TS requires you go back 10.

As I saw the news that 700,000 employees across DoD have been waiting to get their clearance so I&#39;m praying they will process faster.
