Other than occasional "you are still processing" updates, nothing since.
I feel like that’s the response I get frequently as well and it’s kind of very disheartening ....

Here's my timeline:
12/2018 Phone interview for Software Engineer position 1/2019 Received notification from another recruiter regarding the Cyber Capabilities Specialist position 2/2019 Online interview for second position 2/2019 Phone calls from both recruiters regarding CJO 2/2019 Transcript sent 3/2/2019 Signed documents to give NSA permission to obtain info 3/6/2019 Written CJO for both positions 3/8/2019 Submitted SF-86 3/11/2019 Request to revise SF-86 3/11/2019 Revised and sent SF-86
I haven't heard anything from them since then. Is it typical to wait for this long? I'm worried that my hospitalizations during college (first time was voluntary, second time it was not; college was a rough time) may hinder my chances. 12/2019 Request for more information, credit pulled 1/2020 BI interview, references contacted 10/2020 Sent letter to Senator 10/2020 Received reply saying that delay is due to foreign contacts 12/2020 Received mail from scheduling team 2/2021 Subject, psych, polygraph (failed) My polygraph examiner insisted I was hiding information even though I told him everything I could remember. I have not heard from anyone since. I tried contacting my recruiter and IC hires multiple times, but I never got a response. Is this the end?

NSA seems to offer candidates more than one shot at the poly; other places have a one-and-done policy. I don't know for sure but you may get another shot.
You got a response after contacting your senator? Good to know. |

No idea, might be, might not. Anecdotally, others have been told they failed only to be notified they have moved forward. I myself just got tapped for psych and poly after over two years since I first applied.

I never really understood how I could have failed the poly even though I was being honest. How soon does the scheduling team usually reach out afterwards?

Here's my timeline so far
Applied - 02/2020 Technical Interview - 03/2020 CJO (Unofficial) - 04/2020 CJO (Official) - 11/2020 SF-86 Request - 11/2020 SF-86 Submitted - 12/2020 SF-86 (Additional Info Request) - 12/2020 SF-86 Resubmit - 01/2021 Interview with Investigator (Phone) - 01/2021 Interview with Investigator (In-person) - 02/2021 Poly Schedule - 04/2021
Couldn't find a date in March for Poly. So far the timeline is moving pretty fast in comparison to some of the other posts on this forum.

Well I got an email today about if any of my status has changed but they asked for a copy of my parents certificate of naturalization and I’m not sure how I’m suppose to get that.. I tried doing my own digging and I think my grandparents might have it but that might take awhile to track and I’m already I guess waiting and now stressed

This was one of the things they asked within a month after eqip submission. On the bright side, it's a sign that your clearance is moving. Try contacting the USCIS to see if they can help you if your parents can't. That's what I would do.

But I’m surprised as well. I’ve been in the process for almost over two years now and it’s a good things it’s moving but I’m not so sure why so slowly...
