How long did your moral waiver take?
I began the process of joining the army reserves in February. Since then I’ve had to have a tattoo waiver, parenting plan waiver, took the asvab, got medically cleared at MEPS, and the worst part, gathering all the documents needed for a DMPM level waiver. I say it was the worst part because (not his fault) but my recruiter just didn’t know what was going to be needed for the waiver so I was a constant submit, kick back, back and forth.
Tomorrow makes week #3 since initiating the Suitability Review for 1 of the charges that was dismissed. According to my recruiter the SR needs to be approved by USAREC then it automatically changes to a Moral waiver for DMPM and from what he says, we should have it all done in 30 days (next week will be week 4)
I know I still have some time to wait so to pass the time I’m curious if other people have had the same experience as me. If so how long did your waiver take from initiation to decision made?
You don’t have to give detail to the charges if you don’t want to but I’m wondering if what my recruiter says is accurate as far as time. Plus the waiting game is killing me so I need something to keep my mind off it lol
I would say just be patient. It'll happen. I know easier said than done. Have faith.
