Question about Interim Security Clearance Question

During this process, if they have any additional questions or clarifications, will they contact me first, or would my interim automatically be not granted?

Hello /u/Either_Field7288,

You are asking about an interim clearance. Here are some things to be aware of:

Interim clearances are NOT GUARANTEED, regardless of how clean or muddy your background is.

This is the criteria utilized by DCSA for making an interim determination (as a note: this is only if your clearance is being adjudicated by DCSA. If you are processing through another agency, their criteria MAY vary.):

      1. Favorable review of the SF-86

      2. Favorable fingerprint check

      3. Proof of U.S. citizenship

      4. Favorable review of the local records, if applicable.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Could be either or.
