Get Sf86

Tier 5 (T5) and Tier 5R (T5R) = Top Secret/SCI Security Clearance (SF86)

You were dishonorably discharged from the military. You are currently involved in illegal drug use. You have been judged as mentally incompetent or mentally incapacitated by a mental health professional. You have had a clearance revoked for security reasons.

One way the United States government maintains security is by requiring that all its employees complete a questionnaire form. This form is known as Standard Form Questionnaire 86 or SF-86. SF-86 is a questionnaire used by the United States Office of Personnel Management.

A history of drug addiction, drug involvement or alcoholism can provide a barrier to receiving security clearance. Past issues with drugs or alcohol may disqualify you from receiving security clearance. Current, ongoing use of an illegal drug will automatically disqualify you.

The SF-86 Questionnaire is a 127 page questionnaire-form necessary for national security positions in the United States. Your SF-86 Questionnaire is supposed to proceed through the system as shown below. Ninety percent of all cases are supposed to be completed in approximately 60 days.

“It's a significant factor,” the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency spokesperson said. For that reason, the person deciding your case won't necessarily deny your clearance application just because you have a low credit score. There is no specific credit score needed for security clearance.

The SF-86 form requests information back 7 years for employment and residence; however, to comply with the investigative standards, 10 years is required. Citizenship of yourself and “immediate” family members (spouse, children, mother, father, brothers and sisters).
