In this episode of ClearedCast we’re joined by Elisabeth Baker Pham, national security attorney and personnel security expert, to unpack one of the most significant changes to the security clearance process in years—the rollout of the new Personnel Vetting Questionnaire (PVQ).
Replacing the long-standing SF-86 and SF-85 forms, the PVQ represents a major shift in how the federal government approaches background investigations and personnel vetting. Elisabeth walks us through what’s changed, why it matters, and how it impacts both applicants and security professionals.
In this episode:
- What the PVQ is—and how it differs from previous vetting forms
- How the changes aim to streamline and modernize the clearance process
- What applicants should know before filling out the new form
- Potential benefits and lingering concerns from the security community
Whether you’re a first-time applicant, seasoned security officer, or national security policymaker, this episode delivers essential insight into a foundational change in the clearance world.
🎧 Tune in for a practical, expert-led breakdown of the PVQ—and what it means for the future of personnel security.
