if you are lucky there is one august 25th then it takes about 6weeks to complete phase one then you wait for like 6-12months for your clearance

and if your not so lucky it's Oct then Jan

be aware that there are others waiting for courses in front of you. just because you are told you're going on a course doesn't actually mean you'll be going straight away you may end up on PAT platoon for some time.

A level 3 security clearance does average 1 1/2 years.  Nothing anyone can do about it....they are just backed up.  I heard that there are close to 120 291er's done their Phase 1 waiting for a Clearance to go on their Upclass.  Finally got my clearance...as did a few friends who are on course with me.....all of us took 1 1/2 years for a clearance.  It's definately a waiting game....but the way I look at it is less time to promotion now
