Good evening
I have tried to find out a definitive answer but to no avail. I am currently in a role where I am security cleared and have been for last 9 years. My clearance needs renewed later this year.
I was recently arrested and I have a citation to appear at court. I won't go into specifics and without tempting fate, I think once it goes before a judge and all evidence is heard I will get found not guilty.
The issue is my security clearance will probably be up before it goes to court. I have checked and I don't think the forms ask if you have any charges pending, it only asks for spent and unspent convictions.
So my question is, does the security clearance check for pending convictions. Obviously if convicted I would declare it but I am hoping it doesn't get to that.
Any feedback would be appreciated.
