It really depends on the level of clearance needed. There is a huge difference between a Secret and Top Secret Clearance investigation.


That's my understanding as well. I have Secret and didn't think it was all that difficult, basically if you've kept your nose reasonably clean you shouldn't have a problem.

TS with poly is another matter, I know some who have been through it and commented on how positively invasive it was.

Criminal history like a MIP or DUI, or just embezzlement, theft, violent type stuff?

Felony first and foremost. Inconsistencies on a background check like ties to extremist or terrorist groups. The higher the security clearance the deeper they dig...
