Soon as I graduate BLC later this month I plan on dropping a CID packet. How long will it take from applying online to arriving at CIDSAC?

My ETS date is in December, will I need to extend as my current MOS or will I be able to get picked up in time?

30 days in phase 1....2-3 weeks in phase 2....phase 3 can last 90 days but should get everything done in 30....phase 4/5 30-90 days to get accepted/declination letter. Right now schools are 7 months out after the letter. Go to your local CID office and speak with the Det SGT/ Recruiting Coordinator

I had a DEROS of October, found out to December I was accepted, went to the Fort Eustis office in January and went to the schoolhouse in March and pinned my sergeant on in April. I spent from June 78 to March 81 as an enlisted agent. I pinned SSG and WO1 in the same month.
