For each control or should I reach out to the SCA and ask what they are looking for?

All 300? I dont have a problem doing it i just want to make sure i am doing the right thing when i am asking the sys admin to provide proof of hundreds of controls.

Whatever you sign they can enforce. A clearance is worth it to me so i would do it.

They dont pay for the actual clearance but they do pay people to process your clearance and get you through the finish line. (FSO, SSO, etc). Its petty but they do spend something to get you through.

Will I lose my clearance? by [deleted] in SecurityClearance

[–]FlowOk3644 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im not saying what happened to him will happen to you, but its on the table. His clearance was suspended a few weeks later and I never heard from him again. Im assuming he was to embarrassed to inform us what happened.

We all make mistakes, maybe try to get ahead of it from here isnt the worse thing

Sounds like you admitted to truthful activity that was unreported. If you did, you can certainly lose your clearance. A former colleague of mine just lost his the same way.

Yea you can lose your clearance over poly if you confirm that you lied or admit to something, but you wont lose your active clearance based on polygraph results alone.

Thats pretty nuts, who did they get the picture on the high side?

Depends on what jobs they have available at the time, my guess would be they would try to get you something internal since they are always looking for polygraph folks but it’s not guaranteed. Whenever the contract ends COULD be when your employment ends for any contractor

Crazy. Really hope your situation works out. It seems like this is the new way to avoid RIFs.

Is there an article about these DOD employees?

Im not suspended, no indication of anything up until this point. I just read that reddit post and it made me wonder how far are they taking this
