How to get United States government security clearance?

You have to get a job that requires a security clearance. You will have your background extinsively checked, take examinations, speak to many investigators, etc along with a lot of other stuff.

You can't just get one without a need for one.

You'd have to already have a job that requires a security clearance. If you don't have such a job, you can't get one just as a private citizen.

YOU can't.

First your job has to require such access. The request put in by your superior.

Next you fill out a knee high stack of paper detailing pretty much your entire life. Then you wait 6-18 months for them to investigate you. They will sometimes go all the way back to your elementary schooling. Lie on your app and you'll be denied and maybe get an answer as to why.

1st be an american citizen. 2nd pass the background check.3rd have a job that requires a clearance. depending on what kind of clearance the procedure can take anywhere from 5months to a couple of years on the information you've given to the investigators.

I knew someone who was subject to a security clearance background check for a temporary federal job, and he couldnt remember the address of some building he worked in years earlier. They had torn the building down and he had to do some serious searching to figure out what it's (previous) address had been. They wouldnt issue the clearance without that; so if you need a clearance, you better know everything about your own past work/residental addresses.

I'm in the military, and my job requires it....you won't get one just being a private citizen though, as they don't just hand those out.

You ask this like they are handing these out like free toasters when you sign up for a checking account at the bank.

What is wrong with you? Wasn't piloting school enough for you? Don't you think that we can see what you are up to here?

Some one call Home Land Security. I think there is a phone line in need of being tapped!

get hired by them
