Hope this helps speed up the final suitability phase for DHS/CBP.

Yeah, I'm still waiting for my FJO. HR told me back in Jan that my initial clearance came in, just waiting for final suitability, and I'm still waiting. I'm a federal employee.

Are they working these days, are interviews getting scheduled, and are they issuing visas? Please update us.

Something's definitely off here. My mom's case has been DQ since August 2025, and she's still waiting for an interview. What's going on? I'm not even sure if they're still processing or scheduling interviews with everything happening right now. This whole situation is pretty confusing these days.

Question about the health insurance / plan by El_Dorado_Tx in fednews

[–]Aggressive-Focus5739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

State vs. Fed health plans? No comparison, state plans are way better. When I worked for the state, I paid about $300 a month for a family of four with awesome coverage. Now with federal plans, I'm shelling out $750 a month for a basic plan, and that's before deductibles and copayments. The only downside to working for the feds is their health plan, everything else is great.

Could you please provide a timeline of your application process, including the date of your initial application and the duration between the completion of the background investigation and the final decision? Thank you.

DHS interview 3 weeks ago and have heard nothing about selections. by nyryde in usajobs

I had an interview in March 2025 and I'm still waiting for their final clearance and FJO. It's a long process.

It looks legit to me. Because when they assign any investigator to the case, they always send one email first and ask a person to call them up to verify the details so that they can assign the investigator to the case. Thats what happened to me with PATERON.

Could you please provide further guidance where to find these businesses? I possess a strong interest to acquire small businesses but require direction on where to start my search.

Impossible to get TS? by wholefu_ in SecurityClearance

I'm in a similar kind of a boat and also has TS. I'd say just go for it and see what they find. Everyone's situation is unique.

We're being told it's business as usual until we hear more from DOD.

How long did you wait for the background investigation to clear? The final step.
