A dependent waiver for 5 dependents is going to be tough. I'm a Recruiter and I would not waste my time on someone with 5 dependents. Find a Recruiter that is new to recruiting as he would be more willing to 'waste his time' working a waiver that will probably not get approved.

My job is to find qualified personnel to enlist. You're not qualified (without a waiver) and spending time on all that paperwork would take time from me finding qualified people or being home (at a reasonable hour) with my family.

Good luck.

It appears the OP is desperate to find a job to support his family ( noble desire)

However, the military is not like another job ,especially the fact you can't quit and find another or accept a better job outside the military until your binding contract is fulfilled.

I believe LBTRS gave you an honest response and perhaps a response that was long overdue.
