A Common Thread in Security Clearance Denials Upheld by DOHA

When we talk about a “DOHA Appeal,” this is the second round, correct? That is, an applicant has received an SOR, and has provided a response (the first round). If the response to the first round is not favorable, the applicant may then file an appeal (the second round), and that is where the notion of challenging the correctness of the decision.

Is that right? A person should be able to introduce new information in that first round.
