About 2 weeks ago my husband was offered a job with the Government. Prior to starting the job he had to pass a background check in order to get his secret clearance for the job. Well they did the initial check, where you can have the temporary clearance in order to start working. He was denied this one, he thinks because of his credit history. He has some unpaid student loans that he think could be the reason. My question is that if he starts paying them in the meantime, is it still likely he will be able to get the secret clearancr or not?
