Secret clearances are due every 10 years. You must update this as well at least 6 months before it expires.

Security Clearance Verification can be requested through the Reserve Components Office. We will then contact our Security POC’s at HRC to obtain a copy for your section or you as needed.

PLEASE NOTE: HRC will not cut orders on any Soldier lacking a current Security Clearance, including for Annual Training (AT).
