One federal agency has notified me to wait two years before applying. For another federal agency, there was no official notification, likely due to suitability concerns. To err on the side of caution, should I wait two years from now to apply for CAC/PIV clearance?
For context:
- The case was filed in 2022 and resolved in March 2024 with probation before judgement - 5 year probation (already 1 year done, and ask early termination after 1 year)
- The position I’m targeting is likely Tier 1, which involves a 5-year investigation window.
Do you have any advice or thoughts on this approach,. such as wait until 2027 (after 5 years from the arrest)?
