My nationality is Iranian and I am living in Dc with Green Card . I am fluent in Farsi(Persian language) . I understand that each branch of the U.S. Military contains a military intelligence element within that are broad in their field of activities. What is unique about this branch's intelligence community compared with that? How does one determine which branch is best suited for a future intel career?

Non-US Citizens do not qualify for military jobs (MOS) that require secret or higher level clearances. The qualifications for those MOS's will specifically state "Must be U.S. Citizen". All military intelligence MOS's fall into that category. The Army does have a translator program for select languages that may or may not be currently open, that non-citizens can apply for.

There is a pathway to citizenship, yes. But you can only enlist for what you are qualified for at the time. If naturalized later, you could re-enlist with more options. You would still need to qualify for a security clearance, and citizenship alone is not the only factor.

You might be able to get a job with some military contractor. Many times they supply to the Army and other Services.
