Questions about DOE L

Currently awaiting clearance. My coworkers received theirs in the past two weeks. We filled out the same day (Dec8th). One of them lived in the same place & kept the same job for 15 years. The other has lived in one place his whole life.

I’m 25 so in the past 7 years I’ve had probably 7 jobs and one I was fired from at 18 which I included in my form and during my interview (Jan25) and I’ve lived in 3 different places and disclosed I smoked weed a handful of times 7 years ago(It’s out of scope now but wasn’t during the SF-86)

One of my references have been contacted and they was more concerned with my father whom I share a name with and has a lengthy criminal record. I’m assuming the long/hard part is all of my previous employers responding to the forms. Does anyone know when the forms are sent out? Is it automated at the time I fill out my Sf-86 and sent out?

Any info would help, I’m stressing myself out to death as I love my job. Thanks
