Hey for all those recently selected DCO's out there. I was selected at the July '09 boards and thought I had everything good to go for clearance paperwork and MEPS stuff. I completed my SF86 (clearance paperwork) prior to the board but as it turns out there's an additional 3 pages "they" added on to the form. So, now, its two months later and my security clearance hasn't even been started and no one bothered to tell me. The only reason I found out was because I'm headed to Canada next weekend for some R+R and I asked if the foreign travel needed to be declared. My clearance hasn't even started yet so I'm now two months behind on commissioning! Just a heads-up if you did your paperwork a long time ago - you might need to update it!
But I thought you were given an interim clearance anyway, why should this delay your commissioning?

I was under the impression that your clearance had to be completely approved before you can commission. But that's mostly an assumption on my part. If you're right about the interim clearance then I guess it wouldn't necessarily delay it and I could breathe a lot easier! Does anyone know for sure?
