Appealing CIA Clearance Denial due to Poly

A few months after my pre-employment polygraphs with the CIA I received a letter saying I had been denied access to classified information by the CIA.  My recruiter confirmed that this was in face a clearance denial (or SCI access denial, same thing really as far as the government is concerned).  I FOIA'ed and filed my appeal.  I was told it can take up to two years, but that time frame has passed.

Has anyone else here appealed a CIA clearance denial, whether is was due to the polygraphs or some other reason?  How long did your appeal take, what was the processes you went through, and what was the outcome of your appeal?

I am the original poster.   I received a mysterious letter via Certified Mail from the post office, two years after my dreadful CIA polygraphs.   

My appeal was denied.   

Apparently I didn't show enough proof to mitigate the issue and the CIA re-affirms their original decision to deny me CIA clearance/SCI.  I was given the option to file one more appeal to someone higher up, but what's the point?  So I can wait two more years only to get another letter saying the decision still stands?  How does someone mitigate an issue of being falsely accused on a polygraph?  This isn't drug use or crime that can be mitigated with passage of time.  This is someone falsely accusing me of using countermeasures on the polygraph, which is not true.   

Well, I'm done with these assholes.  Luckily I have a better job now that I love, and received my TS/SCI from them, which I currently have, no poly needed.

crappity smack you, CIA.
