TS FS isn’t a clearance level.
Perhaps you’re referring to Top Secret/Secure Compartmented Information clearance with a Full Scope Polygraph?
That number is classified.
- woodruffw 5y agoAFAIK, the number of people with TS//SCI is not actually classified. It's just hard to get a complete headcount because of how broad the designation is. As of 2017, approximately 2.8 million people held TS[1]. A sizable percentage of those people are also probably TS//SCI. Edit: Uncited, from Wikipedia: > In general, military personnel and civilian employees (government and contractor) do not publish the individual compartments for which they are cleared. While this information is not classified, specific compartment listings may reveal sensitive information when correlated with an individual's résumé. Therefore, it is sufficient to declare that a candidate possesses a TS/SCI clearance with a polygraph.
