Hello. My question concerns gaining citizenship while in the military, that is joining as a permanent resident or a green card holder. Has anyone gone through the process, and know how long it takes (I know there is a law for granting military personnel precedence over civilian citizens). Also, would someone be able to join the reserves and still be eligible for the expedited process? (read that is was possible but the descriptions were vague) The reason I ask is because I wanted to join but since I am not a citizen I would not be granted security clearance for any Army Special Operations. Furthermore is it just special ops jobs that require security clearance? Any help is much appreciated! Thanks!
