Thank you for the insight. I am not familiar with the SF86 as I have never seen it. I figure the governmental reliance on polygraph screening would surely apply to translators trusted with sensitive classified information thusly resulting in a full scope test, however I realize my assumption is conjecture as this is not mentioned in the linked report. It would seem his background check, possibly including polygraph screening, was a complete failure.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the Arabic translators Titan sent to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba had been required to submit to polygraph screening. Perhaps the same is true with regard to those sent to Iraq.
However, the DoD's standard polygraph screening technique, the "Test for Espionage and Sabotage," does not include any relevant questions about the examinee's identity or the accuracy of information provided in the examinee's Standard Form 86 (Questionnaire for National Security Positions).
