Middle of June, still no USAO Clearance
Okay, so I am a rising 2L who thought he would be working in the USAO this summer. However, it is the middle of June and I STILL DO NOT HAVE CLEARANCE FROM THE BACKGROUND CHECK. What should I do in this situation? Work for someone else? Wait for clearance?

Check in with your contact at USAO and see if you can get an idea of what's going on.

Re: Middle of June, still no USAO Clearance
they keep saying that the clearances are coming in from the background check department spontaneously and I should keep waiting.
However,last week they made me amend my resume and send a letter stating that I am willing to give up my dual citizenship to work for the dept.

Obviously the dual citizenship status is causing a delay. Hopefully it is the only matter delaying your clearance.

It could be an issue with granting the clearance. From the military side, you cannot get even a secret clearance if you are a dual citizen unless you send in a similar letter.Wait are they asking that you declare that you're willing to give up your dual citizenship just to have a summer job??

Re: Middle of June, still no USAO Clearance
Unless you have a special talent in high demand &/or short supply, I'm surprised that a security clearance would be given to one with dual citizenship.
Nevertheless, if you have made it this far, I suspect that your second country is neither Russia nor China.
