Why would a recruiter terminate a waiver packet out of their system with no explanation?

2019-04-18T15:07:53-04:00

About 2 months ago my "recruiter" went to the station commander course. He never told me he was leaving never briefed anyone on my packet and where it stood. He never told me when he came back and when I had a friend look in the system to see what was going on he had told me that my packet was terminated from their system and couldn't see why. So now my friend has my packet and is trying to clean up the mess that was made. Can anyone tell me why this would have happened? Also, I am going on my 2 year mark from starting this process. Why is it taking this long for a waiver packet it to be completed when every other person I have talked to took 6 months at most.

My recruiter did this too but kept telling me he’s working on it just to find out it was all a lie

9 months ago you posted on here that this same waiver you need also requires a minimum AFQT of 50 and that you did not meet that requirement.
Unless this requirement has changed, or you tested again and scored over 50, then that is why your recruiter would have terminated it.

It’s not always up to the recruiter. It could be the Station Commander who made the call as well. It comes down to mission. Though I don’t do NPS recruiting, it’s the same in my station. If we have an individual who needs a waiver that we know is going to take time, we shift priorities to those who will make our next board. We only have 6 board an FY so we have to be selective. I’ve been on station for 3 years now and there are still waivers that I worked when I first got here that have not been approved. Not on our end up from G1. Just being on the inside, I wouldn’t necessarily say that your recruiter is to blame. Waivers are a lot and complicated. We’ve had waivers go to other centers before because they had an SME there on how to work and submit waivers properly and then train us. So, it may be a good thing that you’ve gone to someone else. They may really know how to complete your waiver but trust me, it’s not always the recruiters fault.
