Back when I was at MEPS and was finishing the final interview, I wrote on the paper that I have dual-citizenship. The man said that it was a problem and could mess with my security clearance. I instantly told him that I was willing to renounce my Syrian citizenship if it would allow me to have the 18x contract. He said O.K. and then had me sign a paper stating that I was willing to renounce my citizenship. After that he faxed it somewhere and I thought I had no problems.
Later on, someone called my recruiter and told him that it still was a problem. He contacted me and he said we have to try and get rid of the problem ourselves. We contacted the embassies and consulates of America and Syria and found out it was impossible to renounce my Syrian citizenship. We looked all around for answers and nobody knew what to do. Everyone said that it was a mistake that I was able to get an 18x contract because the dual-citizenship should have stopped me immediately.
I looked around some more on the internet for answers and found this site
http://www.state.gov/m/ds/clearances/60321.htm#c
This site had some guidelines as to how you can be eligible for a security clearance. I looked over them and found that I have no disqualifying conditions and meet almost all of the mitigating circumstances. Then I found a recent court case
http://www.dod.mil/dodgc/doha/indust...9-01894.h1.pdf
where a girl with dual-citizenship was granted security clearance based on the mitigating circumstances.
I sent these to my recruiter and he said that this information could help me with my problem.
A few days later he called me again and said that this information wasn't enough. I don't even know what to do anymore.
I will appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance.
