This is a sponsored column by attorneys John Berry and Kimberly Berry of Berry & Berry, PLLC, an employment and labor law firm located in Northern Virginia that specializes in federal employee, security clearance, retirement and private sector employee matters.

By Melissa L. Watkins, Esq.

Security clearance questionnaires are an essential part of the process for individuals seeking access to classified information in the U.S. government or related sectors.

These forms, known as Standard Form 86 (SF-86) (electronically known as the eApp), require applicants to provide personal, professional, and financial details to assess their trustworthiness and reliability. Given the complexity of these forms and the high stakes involved in securing clearance, it’s not uncommon for applicants to make mistakes, whether unintentionally omitting information or providing incorrect details.

It is also the case that some individuals intentionally omit unfavorable information, for example, a prior criminal record, in hopes that it will increase their likelihood of being approved for a security clearance. Understanding how to address these issues promptly is crucial to maintaining both your eligibility for clearance and your integrity in the process.

Errors on the SF-86/eAPP

The SF-86 requires the applicant to disclose a wide range of sensitive data, including criminal history, financial status, foreign contacts, and drug use, among other things. Any misrepresentation, even if accidental, can lead to significant consequences, such as delayed processing, denial of clearance, or potential disqualification.

For those misrepresentations that are material to determining if someone is qualified to hold a security, such errors can call into question the applicant’s integrity and potentially lead to security concerns related to personal conduct. The government relies heavily on the accuracy of the information provided to make determinations about a person’s suitability for access to national security information. Therefore, correcting mistakes in your submission should be a top priority.
