I had a follow-up last week about some information I forgot to send, so I think they’re moving (albeit probably slowly). I submitted mine in December.

Submitted secret clearance form in December. Granted in April. Don’t know how long if you are applying for top secret.

How does one find out when it’s granted? Not the prelim clearance but fully cleared? Been about a year since I had prelim secret clearance and am well into my new job, but not sure if you ever get notified of the final or if there’s a way to look it up as a federal employee.

You can reach out to your security POC, but you can’t look it up yourself. They should notify you when you have your final, but that doesn’t always happen.

How do I determine the likelihood of getting a Top Secret Security clearance? I am qualified for a number of federal jobs but haven’t applied because of an allegation of misconduct at my job five years ago. I have plenty of positive equities since then and evidence of rehabilitation for admission to the bar. I just have no idea how much forgiveness is possible in a TS security clearance.

SOS, I got a govt offer & was let go from my current job. I was not given a clear reason for termination but it was not misconduct. How do I phrase this in a disclosure statement for background check
