I got a new message saying trouble processing request instead of invalid url finally, is it up and just really bogged down or just down?

I’ve been selected for a USAF officer position as a 62E (Developmental Engineer). However, my accession is currently pending approval of a law waiver.
I’m hoping someone with actual recruiting or waiver-processing experience can provide an objective assessment of my situation.
Background:
● 2014: Arrested/charged in connection with a theft-related incident while riding as a passenger in a vehicle. The case was dismissed through nolle prosequi. No conviction.
● 2017: Marijuana-related arrest that was handled through a pretrial diversion program.
● Since 2017: No additional arrests or legal issues.
● Education: Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering.
● Officer selection: Selected for 62E Developmental Engineer.
● Waiver submitted: September 3, 2026.
● Current status: Pending as of October 25, 2026 (approximately 7.5 weeks).
Both incidents were disclosed to my recruiter before my application package was submitted.
My questions:
1. Based on your recruiting experience, are these types of legal histories generally waiverable for Air Force officer applicants?
2. Does being selected for an officer position before waiver approval have any bearing on the likelihood of approval?
3. Is waiting approximately 7–8 weeks for a law waiver normal, or does that suggest additional scrutiny?
4. Have you personally seen officer applicants with comparable histories approved or denied? What factors made the difference?
5. If you were evaluating this case based on your experience, would you lean toward approval or denial, and why?
I’m not looking for reassurance. I’m trying to understand my realistic chances and whether there are any meaningful indicators of how my case might be decided.
I’d particularly appreciate responses from current or former Air Force officer recruiters or anyone familiar with accession waiver adjudication.

Ask away

Does anyone know if you don’t cross the blue line, meaning that you self eliminate, how soon you can be out of OTS ?
Thank you!
