If your command has suspended your clearance, you may have been moved to:

  • a non-sensitive billet
  • temporary hold or restriction of duties

This is usually the first sign your clearance is in jeopardy. You have the right to challenge the suspension and present mitigating evidence.

  • Response to Letter of Intent (LOI)

A well-crafted response often results in clearance restoration without a hearing.

  • Reviewing your investigative file and all allegations
  • Identifying errors or unsupported claims
  • Gathering mitigating evidence and documentation
  • Preparing detailed written rebuttals
  • Representing you at hearings or appeals, if required
