29JUNE2026 IWC Board

I touched on this a couple of comments back, but when I spoke to a Chief who handles the packages, they told me that IWC packages are being sent one at a time. Since Intel is your first choice, it’ll only go to that board. If selected, congratulations! If not, your package for your second choice gets kicked to the next board automatically. I would still follow up to ensure it does make it to the board as the date approaches.
Wow well let's hope the next board isn't another year away LOL. Thanks for the info.

Is there a reason when I was submitting my package that they asked about language proficiency? Or was it just to have it on record? It was part of the last few questions my recruiter asked me.
Probably because your recruiter isn't fully aware what the job would do? I worked with Intel officers at the recruiting district and knew a few from the ship I was on that I talked to, they all said they have never needed to know or use any foreign language. We had a reserve Intel officer at a reserve center near me, prior to going to the reserves he sat a few IWC OCS boards and said language skills weren't considered as not a part of the actual job.

as someone in the intel field that works with linguists, occasionally officers (or any other enlisted rate really) that have a secondary (or more) language and a TS/SCI clearance could be asked to fulfill temporary duties in the intel field if there's a need for said language

Hello everybody, I've been lurking this board for quite sometime but just haven't posted. My recruiter told me that you can only apply to one designator at a time and that they changed it ~1 year ago. Since I see that a lot of people on the spreadsheet put 2 designators, is this what he was referring to?

Good luck everybody!
 
Speaking to the folks over at N3, the way I understand it is you are put in for your primary designator initially. If they put you as alternate or if they say no then you'd be pushed to the other designator so if you choose INTEL and CW then youd go from one to the other in the same board cycle since they are happening at the same time. Someone correct me if im wrong.
