**FBI Knock and Talk: What Happens and What It Means for Your Security Clearance**

On ClearanceJobsBlog, a user shared that they had been visited by the FBI for a knock and talk. They chose NOT to speak with them, and nothing came of it.

They asked a few key questions:

🔹 Will this show up in my FBI name check?  
🔹 Should I disclose this interaction when applying for a TS/SCI clearance?
