My Secret to TS/SCI Timeline
Just wanted to come on here and share my timeline of going from a Secret to a TS/SCI clearance. A little background: I was on active duty in the Navy for six years, where I held a secret, and then I transitioned to a job in the Air Force Reserve, where I needed a TS/SCI. Also, some of the dates are estimations.
SF86 Submitted: December 6th(?)
Interview with DSCA investigator: January 28th
References contacted: January 29th/30th
Investigation completed, moved to adjudication: February 27th(?)
Clearance grated: April 11th
My only possible red flag was high credit card debt, but nothing in collections or delinquent. I was honestly really surprised at how fast this all went. My investigator was super efficient and I never ran into any headaches. I consider myself very lucky.
