I want a govt job, If I filed bankruptcy...?

While applying for a top secret clearance, can I denied based on filing bankruptcy? I only have a foreclosure on my credit, is it worth it to file? I am unemployed and prob.on the hook for 200k

If you file for bankruptcy you can forget about getting hired to work for the government. You will not be the only one applying, and someone who has not filed for bankruptcy will get the job guaranteed. You are unemployed with considerable debt. You would probably have a hard time just getting a job in retail or fast food.
