SF-86s are only filled out during initial processing and periodic reinvestigations (every 10 years for secret, every 5 years for TS). This database included everyone that every applied for clearance, regardless of whether one was granted, so some of the information will appear once and never get updated again. Individuals are required to self report major changes, such as address, marriage/divorce, legal issues, drug/alcohol incidents, personal travel, and certain foreign contacts (but not all). This reporting goes to their local security officer who would make entries into JPAS or similar systems outside of DoD, but it does not go back to OPM. This data only shows up in OPM when the individuals go through a periodic reinvestigation or occasionally when switching agencies or being accessed to certain programs. <br /><br />Other than that, I think your assessment is correct. Some foreign intelligence service just one the jackpot and will be trading that information or portions of it around the world for years to come.<br /><br />We are so screwed.spacer01https://www.blogger.com/profile/15266031034224147180noreply@blogger.com
