TS eligibility
I currently hold an active Secret clearance and may be looking at positions that require a TS. My only concern is that I have a few accounts in collections from loans that were used to cover medical expenses under 18k. Im currently making payments toward the balances and actively working on resolving them.
Other than the collections, I don’t have any criminal history or other major issues that I’m aware of that would raise concerns during an investigation. I’ve already been through the clearance process for my current Secret.
Has anyone here been approved for a TS while having collections that they were actively making payments on? Mainly wondering whether the fact that the debts are being addressed/paid makes a significant difference during adjudication & render me completely unable to obtain one.
