TS Clearance Disqualification

SECURITY CLEARANCE Q&A
1

Im in the Air Force and got an assignment where I need a TS clearance. In the past 7 years I have had more than one Delinquent account that went to a collection agency. when contacted by the debt collectors, I set up a plan to pay it in full. All my accounts that were delinquent are paid in full and my credit score is 700 now and my total debt is only around $2000. Do you think I will be turned down because of my past?

Thank You.

No, because you took responsibility and actions to resolve the debt it is no longer an issue. As long as there is no future pattern of financial irresponsibility then you should be good to go.
