Before anyone tells me to contact my FSO, please know I contacted them and still waiting on a response. Can an FSO or anyone else who’s experienced in this, answer my question: I currently have TS/SCI, issued through DOD (Army Reserves). It was adjudicated last fall. About a month ago I took an offer to work for a 3 letter government agency based out of DC. The role required TS/SCI with CI poly. I took the poly and failed it, which unfortunately ended my contract with the agency. During the poly I didn’t admit to any crime(s). I’m just not a good poly test taker because I’m always anxious and my mind plays tricks on me. The FSO for the contracting company I went through advised me that this will negatively affect my TS and any future roles that will require a TS. They also mentioned that my TS will be pulled because I failed the poly. I’m worried about this. I’m still in the Army Reserves and utilizing my TS for my MOS. Can someone please shed some light on my situation? ---

You could be administratively separated from the Army if you lose your clearance.
