Security Clearance FAQs
Team Amentum supports the Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) in safeguarding our nation. The U.S. Government processes and adjudicates security clearances based on federal law, executive orders, and DoD and IC directives. Our best word of advice is to be completely candid during the security process. Your cooperation in this regard will help ensure that the process goes more smoothly and quickly. This begins with completing all the security forms accurately and honestly.
Only US citizens are eligible for a clearance.
The background investigation helps determine the applicant's honesty, trustworthiness, reliability, discretion and unquestioned loyalty to the United States. Personal interviews are conducted to review the completed security forms and discuss the topics necessary to help our Intelligence Community customer adjudicate the applicant's eligibility for a security clearance. There are also other checks conducted during a clearance process.
The clearance process addresses both employment suitability and security reliability issues. To obtain the security clearance for employment, applicants must satisfy the criteria found in Executive Order 12968 and Intelligence Community Directive (ICD) Number 704. The hiring process includes, but is not limited to, a polygraph interview, and a background investigation. Additionally, all applicants and employees are subject to random drug testing in accordance with Executive Order 12564. Please note: Marijuana is NOT legalized Federally and any type of marijuana use in the last twelve (12) months WILL disqualify you. We strongly recommend all responses to questions posed by representatives at any time during employment processing be complete, candid and truthful.
There is no typical application process timeline, however you should expect that the process is considerably longer than normally experienced in private industry because every applicant is required to have a Top Secret with SCI access (TS/SCI) clearance. Each applicant is unique in terms of life experience and background.
Guidance on drug use
Although some state laws allow Marijuana usage, it is still federally illegal. If applying to Intelligence positions requiring a security clearance, we must advise you that in order to be granted a security clearance, candidates must be free from Marijuana usage 90 days prior to submitting the required security clearance application (i.e., SF-86). Candidates also must be free of all other illegal drugs for at least 12 months prior to submitting the SF-86. It is important that you be truthful when completing your SF-86. We are advising you of these requirements so that you can assess whether you will be able to obtain a security clearance from the Government under these conditions. Please be aware that if your security clearance is denied, you will be ineligible to be processed for a clearance for 1 year, by any company or any Government agency. If the above does apply to you, we encourage you to re-apply once you have maintained a 90-day abstinence from Marijuana usage and/or 365-day abstinence from all other illegal drugs. Please remember that Amentum is a company that adheres to the Government’s requirement to maintain a drug free work environment, requiring employees to refrain from the use of illegal drugs while working for Amentum. Additionally, employees are required to refrain from the use of illegal drugs while obtaining and maintaining a security clearance during the life of the clearance.
