Hey Guys,

Im new to the site so any help is appreciated. I am currently 28 and recently applied to the Navy and everything was going good until the recruiter looked up my driving history. He told me I have too many tickets to able to get in. I want to know if there is anything I can do to get a waiver to be allowed in. Once again, any information helping me out would be greatly appreciated.

How many do you have ? What type are there ?
Did you ask them about a waiver?

Since I was driving it was at 20. All for minor things like speeding and some are for driving on a suspended license. And the recruiter just told me I disqualify. I asked about a waiver, but he told me he couldn't. This happened to me yesterday. I was already set up for the asvab and the recruiter seemed please with my practice score so I want to know if there is something I can do to try and get in. I wanted to join when I was younger but got scared off. Now it has been in my head for almost a year solid and I want to go for it.

Did you think of asking the recruiter if there was anything you could do?

I did but he just said no. I am going to go talk to him again. And I apologize for my grammar. It ahs been a long day for me and I am slacking on my typing.

Good luck with this.

Have you considered trying the Army, each branch has different requirements.

There was a recent news story, that the Armed Forces are reducing head count and are tightening up their requirements. They are not accepting just anyone anymore. So your timing may be bad. But the recruiter knows the rules.

The only recourse you might have is to talk to your congressional representative.
