Which scores are used for government security clearance? Does anyone know what the acceptable score is for a Top Secret or Secret security clearance?
I think I lost a job recently because of a 693 score.

You have to keep in mind the purpose of a credit check for these kinds of clearances is more to determine whether you have been loyal to capitalism and contributed faithfully to the corporations that run the country than it is to determine whether financial pressures could compromise you.
Rejecting a candidate who is in debt to his eyebrows with repos on the way makes sense from the standpoint of insuring an individual is not pressured to pass on secrets for a buck. Rejecting one for a charged-off cell phone bill four years ago...that's just retribution for not contributing adequately to corporate profits.
