Expunged record for top security clerance

My boyfriend applies for a job now that will require top security clearance and he told me I need to provide him my information. I had an expunged record that’s happened 8 years ago and I’m embarrassed to tell him about.

Does he need to know about it or it’s not related and there is no need to report it?

You are just included in the investigation as a cohabitant, there is no need for you to disclose if you don’t want to, it will not affect his ability to get cleared.

Forgot to mention I’m still a green card holder, meaning I’m a foreign contact. Does it change anything or it’s still not necessary to let my boyfriend know about the expunged record.

Does not change anything about the expunged record, they will review the foreign influence concerns separately.

He will probably be asked to provide your SSN and other PII if you are indeed romantic cohabitants residing together at the same residence.
