My rewnlistnebt window is opening up and I'm looking into reclassing to 35P. I meet all requirements except the one for immediate family residing outside of the US. Some of my immediate family reside in the states as green card holders, and the other live in Mexico with Mexican citizenship and 1 with us citizenship. Is this a disqualifying factor? Are there immediate family waivers? Are there 35P recruiters I can talk to? Thank you!

Not as long as they have clean records or any security concerns. They will ask about them during your TS interview. The concerns about foreign relatives is that they will influence you in regards to maintaining TS information. They WILL be investigated. As long as they don't have any criminal or intelligence ties to Mexico, you should be okay.

Directly to your question, EVERYTHING is waiver-able, EVERYTHING. The real question is WILL they waiver this for you, and for that answer, there is a LOT of details that are not in the question. It normally breaks down to how bad they need people and how badly they want you?

This has been my experience throughout my career in the military. I joined at 41 years of age so I needed a waiver. I was too old to go to Infantry school so I needed a waiver. When I joined 20th SFG(A) my DLAB wasnt high enough for Pashto so I needed a waiver. I was too old to go to Jump School at 50 so I needed a waiver.
See a pattern here?
But like MSG says, it all depends. And some of that depends on you, how gungho you are, how exemplary your military record is, and what your peers say about you.
Hopefully its ALL outstanding (as you should be to be a 35P in my honest opinion).
My experience is: All things are waiverable all things being equal. But maybe not all things are waiverable all the time?
See you on the high ground.....

Well put. Only thing I might disagree on is holding the high ground....takes to much fire in modern combat. :)

It does not matter. You just have to write a statement that says that although your relative lives in another country, that it will not affects the way you handle classified information. Me 35P cuban parent i could not confirm wherabouts or citizenship and mok resides in mexico.
