Changing jobs during a Periodic Reinvestigation PR for a Secret

Last time I used my Secret was back in June 2023. My 5 year PR for Secret is due on Nov 2 2024. My current job only requires Public Trust. I am offered a part time job as a Security Guard that requires Secret and the new company has agreed to initiate my PR for Secret. Can I quit or switch jobs after 2 months after filing for PR with the new company. Will the PR continue

Five year periodic reinvestigation for Secret? Thought it was ten… not counting for CE wild card effects.

@sbusquirrel thanks for response. Don’t understand your comment “not counting for CE wild card effects.”

I got my first Secret Approval in June 2010. Then renewal Approved in Nov 2019 with the comments in JPASS as “The Subject was placed on CE on 11/03/2019 so a PR is not due until 11/02/2024.”

I think the rule has changed for Secret from 10 to 5 Years for PR. What about response to my other query regarding changing or quitting job while on PR

Will appreciate ur response

My comment about CE basically means I don’t know what effect it will have… will a contractor accept an applicant who has been enrolled in Continuous Evaluation with a BI that is more than five/six/? years old?

As for quitting/changing while the investigation is open, I used to think this was a bad idea but I’ve heard a few people do this successfully. I’m not sure but I think maybe it depends on the gaining FSO properly taking over your clearance and avoiding “loss of jurisdiction.”
