Only some agencies Poly.  State DEFINITELY DOES NOT.  Most top secrets do not require polys.  Top secrets with SCI do for CIA, FBI, NSA, DEA, USS, and a handful of other agencies.

My question is simply this. If you have filled out and submitted a SF 86, will you always have to do a polygraph? I cannot discern from reading here if it is only for TS clearances or people applying with FBI, CIA, etc. I personally know that I will only be needing a secret clearance and will be working as a contractor. Any help on the subject would be great. I am just mainly curious if a polygraph will accompany anyone that fills out the 86 or not?

I just found some really helpful info on this site. There is a link to Laws and Procedures of the Security Clearance.  As the job I am applying for may be  under DOD or State Dept, it appears that there is no Poly needed. Again anyone that can shed light on this would be appreciated.


Thanks
