The process and standards for Interim’s seems to have changed in recent years. At least based on what I’ve seen here. It depends greatly on the agency doing the investigation. My DOD interim came in about 4 months after my SF86 submittal date.
I think the biggest driver on a successful interim clearance being granted is how well you complete the SF86. If you are thorough, up front and honest about every detail, you are far more likely to be granted interim (not to mention the fact that it makes your investigation go a lot easier too). Since you clearly are aware of the process, have experience in this in the past, I’m guessing you’re an ideal candidate for a quick interim.
