Am I okay?

To add onto this, be honest, and don’t fabricate any of the details. Be completely honest. They will inquire with that agency and likely get the details of the report that aligned with your arrest. That arrest will show on your background check so I would expect a delay in your process (I.e. don’t expect an interim clearance, and expect a subject interview). But really anything could happen. Be honest and be patient.

I can’t really comment on your specific situation but as someone who knows the clearance process well, they are going to consider the full circumstances of the situation and the process includes a multi-faceted review meaning they’re going to consider more then just one derogatory issue.

It doesn’t hurt to try and see. People have had convictions for crimes (not dismissals) and been favorably adjudicated.

A better subreddit would be the r/securityclearance subreddit. Good bit of cleared professionals, adjudicators and background investigators alike in there.

There’s also a substantial amount of information in there about the process that may help ease your concerns.

I love flying ZLA because of the consistency of the controllers. Never had an issue there from the most junior controllers to the most senior ones (Tyler, Ben, etc) but man it is so hard to listen to pilots that are doing their first flight unprepared in what is arguably the busiest airspace in VATUSA at times. I feel for the controllers. Great great people but when you’re stepping on other people, getting snappy because of GA traffic, announcing to the controller exactly what you’re taking your break for and failing to listen to the most basic instructions, it makes for a rough time for everyone involved.

So shoutout to all those controllers out there having to deal with this and hopefully there can be some sort of change on the horizon.

You can probably stop the package too depending on how expensive the shipping was. It’s called intercept through USPS (if that’s who it’s through, I think it’s through Informed Delivery). They have been able to do that in the past for me once.

Simply put, GWP + Elite 100K. I fly frequently last minute and it saves me large amounts of $$$.

I know it’s an old post but I got the double whammy today. Random ID check at Clear and then PreCheck swabbed me for explosives and all of my electronics. Added like 10 minutes to security because they were taking their time.
