    I would argue that they are making too much of an issue of past drug use if they make it an issue. Our last three Commanders-in-Chief have had a history of drug use.

    in short. in case you Lie and get caught, you will get no secure practices Clearance, you will have not have been given any have confidence. For secret Clearance a countrywide or close by organization verify is complete, looking particularly for police information. rather consumer-friendly to get if sparkling. yet you are able to need precise secret with SCI Eligible at last, looking on your activity. I had secret for the 1st area of my time in, yet had to get TS/SCI for my activity with the better rank/accountability I have been given. in case you tell the certainty, age, what, how many times, and THE final TIME USED are taken into consideration for an SSBI (Required for precise secret). MJ isn't on the instant disqualifying, Coke, i don't understand. yet mendacity is a at once Clearance dis-qualifier. For a SSBI or SBI the DoD investigator WILL music down as many people who've wide-unfold you over the previous 10 years. If one says, "yeah this one time...." you're screwed. secure practices Clearance is all approximately have confidence. Can the government have confidence you with some quite delicate secrets and methods on the TS/SCI point (precise key's defined as "information that would desire to gravely compromise the national secure practices of america".). in case you lie, that have confidence is already broken, evidence isn't REQUIRED to disclaim clearance, suspicion of indiscretion may well be adequate.

    No, but admit the truth anyway. As long as it is two years ago should not be a problem.

    If you weren't convicted you should be okay for it.
