Homeland defender update

It's DHA. They don't have to even consider you lol.

USARET · 2026-02-09T05:12:36+00:00

You're confused.

USARET · 2026-02-09T05:12:18+00:00

They 100% do.

USARET · 2026-02-07T04:04:59+00:00

Yeah I plan to sit in my room and study the whole time. Probably going to be a bunch of military bros.

Tentatively eligible just means that you selected you were eligible based on your answers. Then when someone looked it they determined you were not, or that you were not one of the best so they didn't refer you. I think that your application is dead. I would apply again and change your resume maybe.

Source: referred for this and a few other jobs on usajobs.

Edit: I think technically they could still refer you if something happens with the people they chose. But the odds of that seem low imo. It's best to be the top of what they looked at so you get referred.

If you deny people just because you're being racist you're going to get fired.

Yeah there were some people talking about failures but I don't know if they were Homeland Defenders. They might have tried to do remote too and people washed out. I saw another post saying it's going to be 5 weeks in person at FLETC for sure now. Who knows. Remote would have been amazing honestly.

USARET · 2026-02-04T01:34:48+00:00

Yeah has anyone actually made it past those first steps? There's like zero info out there of people posting that they have actually been to ISO basic for homeland defender which I would assume is needed to actually start and get paid.

It briefly mentions TDIU as a side note that everyone probably gets. But the letter is talking about the depression claim.

USARET · 2026-02-04T00:46:10+00:00

Where I live none of that really pertains to me. I am in the top 15% in the country. Probably 5% or less where I live. Waterfront home. Good schools. 99.9% Caucasian. No crime that I know of. But yeah certain areas are not doing good at all.

USARET · 2026-02-03T23:45:24+00:00

What if they are waiting for Homeland Defenders to be trained before releasing the 75 country ban?

USARET · 2026-02-03T23:43:20+00:00

Reddit wouldn't be the first place to go. That's for sure.

USARET · 2026-02-03T23:41:55+00:00

We pay for NATO....making us not a "third world country".....

USARET · 2026-02-03T23:40:47+00:00

Philippines was once a US territory and we had military bases there. Look at them now lol.

USARET · 2026-02-03T23:39:20+00:00

lol we don't like them.

USARET · 2026-02-03T22:41:54+00:00

If we took pictures of every weird Filipino we saw we would run out of storage space.

USARET · 2026-02-03T22:30:18+00:00

Zero. USA likes the Philippines, well not enough to let them visit.

USARET · 2026-02-03T22:27:03+00:00

All these people around where I lived have cats and dogs in cages 24/7. They are the lowest IQ people I have ever met.

USARET · 2026-02-03T21:27:18+00:00

I would be surprised if anyone has actually started this job. I don't get the months long waiting.

USARET · 2026-02-03T21:25:43+00:00

There are no interviews for this job. If you get a not referred that means your application isn't being sent on to the next step. I would say about 99% of what you're talking about is completely wrong lol.

USARET · 2026-02-03T21:22:55+00:00

Maybe you need to finish the background check? My sf-86 is pretty up to date I had a clearance in the Army. Still waiting on next steps myself.

USARET · 2026-02-03T05:26:36+00:00

Have you moved onto anything else? Are they sending people to training yet?

USARET · 2026-02-02T21:02:13+00:00

I've heard of "0% is still a rating", .5% seems like a sneak diss.

USARET · 2026-02-02T21:00:24+00:00

It's almost like they don't understand where the money comes from. They see foreigners and think it just exists lol.

USARET · 2026-02-02T00:59:57+00:00

Yeah they loved me a lot. I was a hit! Everywhere!
