Background Qualifications and Waiver???

I'm actually in a situation that requires some aid. I'm trying to become an IS guy: I qualify where the ASVAB is concerned, my physical is good, but a seat hadn't opened up for 'A' School for this job, and my background is a little questionable: I have two fines that I already paid off before I even enlisted: one was for failing to file my income tax back in 2011 and the other was a loitering fine. My Recruitment Officer is saying that that is going to get in the way of me getting the job, however, it doesn't say that either of these will make me negligible for the job in the PS1 job rating book, or on any official Naval website that states the job ratings: it only says:

"Applicants must be U.S. citizens and meet eligibility requirements for continuous access to sensitive compartmented information (SCI). Eligibility for a top secret clearance is determined by the results of a Single Scope Background Investigation followed by a re-investigation every five years. Adversely adjudicated drug abuse offenses will not receive waiver consideration."

My question is, is it possible to request a waiver for the job provided a seat opens up? Am I totally, and finally disqualified based on two measly little fines that happened prior to enlistment? I don't want anything getting in my way when, and IF a seat opens up because right now they have me in the HMDA program, and I don't want this, however they told me if I don't take this I risk being kicked out of the Navy...great...

Anyway thanks in advanced guys for the replies/responses.
