Adjudication Timeline

I believe they move as fast as they can. If there is lengthy discussion or disagreement…they will not move the same volume. So often the correct answer is “it depends.” I think this is one of those situations. Too many variables to reliably pin it down. I can say Secret clearances were taking 4 months. Now 9 to 12 months. This is actual real world, right now timelines. At any time, any aspect of investigations and adjudication can be impacted, causing delays. It may be a specific package, it may be world events.
