Has anyone here applied for security clearance and been denied? What happens if you’re denied the clearance?

Yes, mine was revoked after ten years of having it because I was fired from cvs as a lab tech when I was 17. Don’t even know how they granted me the clearance without knowing that. It’s just arbitrary bs and politics. Our President has a clearance if that means anything to you about how consistent and fair they are with this process.

If your employment agreement doesn’t require a clearance they’ll keep you or push you out. If it requires one, you are let go. No point staying in the DC area after that.

Don’t even apply if there is a strong chance you will get denied. Getting denied will put a black mark on your name for the rest of your career and make it highly unlikely that you’ll ever get a clearance, b/c you have to report the denial on future SF-86s.

My wife was denied SCI due to taking depression meds which she told about in advance. She was let go even though she had TS and had been on the project 18 months after getting the TS.

Even in CA legal to fire if role requires a clearance. She'd had SCI for about 3 years then changed firms and was on a project that didn't require it. She was taking same meds on SCI, and TS for about 6 years when a different investigator changed the rules.

There is no real appeals process.
