It lapsed. That's about all you will ever know for sure. Presumably he or someone with a right to the information asked the previous security team. But the 12 month rule is clear and has been in place forever.
And before you ask the subject is not usually included in the "right to know" list.Blog? What blog...?Comment

When you were granted your original clearance, the Security Office would have informed you. The start and expiry date would normally have been on the email, and clearance document.
Natural end used to be 10 years in the case of permies, 5 years in the case of contractors (it's now 7, in my case).
Certain clearances give you a card which has all your clearance details on it.
If your clearance has not been used for 12 months, since you left the role where it was last used, it will have lapsed.I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).Comment

I got a letter this time, which was a first. Previously all I had was an informal email telling me it had come through OK.See You Next TuesdayComment

Originally posted by EylesIT View PostThanks for your reply. How do you know it lapsed? Did you get some notification that it had lapsed? Or did you learn of the lapsed status by contacting an organisation? Or something else?Comment
