Filled out the EQIP for the SF-85P in early February. Had my security interview in mid-February.
Called the security office yesterday and they told me it looks like only a single work check for a company I worked at 3 years ago is still pending.
Do these checks typically take this long, and how long should I expect it to be before completion? I know it can vary from case to case but if it’s only one check remaining could it really take that long? Are there other time extensive processes that occur after all these checks?
I’m asking this because the company I’m employed for requesting this Public Trust has just told me they are tired of waiting for the check to complete and are letting me go soon regardless of completion by a specific date. I should add as well, that there was some kind of issue initially at the start of the process that prevented me from continuing work until the investigation is completed. I have not been able to find out any information on an ETA or what the initial issue was.
I had a lower Public Trust completed a couple of years ago without issue.
Thank you in advance for any input!
