Will i loose a secret clearance if I marry a Russian girl?

Question

I want to marry a Russian girl I have know for awhile, but im interested in still working for the govt. after the military. Will i loose my secret clearance? I have heard this from some people

Answer 1

No way to know for sure until they do a background check on her. Maybe, is all anyone can say for now.

Answer 2

Not necessarily, but check with your section chief or your HR people. They will do a security check on her background and the results will determine the security risks.

I know a CIA agent married to a Russian girl and he his still working for them!

Answer 3

I can pretty much guarantee you won't LOOSE it.

(However, I'm not sure if you will LOSE it or not.)

Answer 4

the chances are yes but make your enquiries to the right people and if the answer is positive then get it in writing confirming

Answer 5

perhaps you should check with your govt job
