I’ve been waiting 2 months going on 3 for my paperwork to get from Amarillo to Dallas MEPS. I was originally going into the Texas National Guard but found out I would lose rank and would have to wait a while for AGR so I opted to change branches and go Army. I’m a Prior Service Marine who got out last Aug. Can it be know to take this long? Thank you in advance for the comments.

Shouldn’t really take more than a month. Any longer than that and someone is just dragging their feet.

Lol that process shouldn’t take long at all. I worked at MEPS and we literally sent out MEPS to meps records the same day they got requested or atleast by the end of the week. And they have no excuse because I worked at Atlanta MEPS which is busier than both of those.

I am actually trying to enlist and have been in the process since the beginning of the year. I got my waivers in March and still haven't gone to meps yet.

Thanks sir, yea my recruiter does a good job keeping me in the loop says they call up there every day and she’s talked to the 1stSgt and CSM last week but that’s about all they can do aparently. We shall see how it goes, thanks for the input.
