NBIB the investigating agency has had a significant backlog over the years. Some of the most common items that can cause a delay in the expeditiousness of the investigation are foreign contacts/involvement/travel, criminal history, financial problems, and drug/alcohol usage.
Each Intelligence Agency only has a certain number of designated individuals that process reciprocity requests. The limited amount of resources coupled with the requirement to review the investigation completed by the originating agency can cause a reciprocity request to take up to 90 days.
Fingerprints can be required if you have had a 2 year lapse in your security clearance access, a re-investigation is needed due to an incident report, or it is an initial investigation. Fingerprints taken for security clearances are not transferred to other agencies for other security clearances.
Your eligibility may remain in the system of record so long as you are within scope on your investigation while only being indoctrinated at the Secret level.
Once logged into Security Control, from the Employee Portal click on MY REQUESTS AND REPORTS found on the left side panel. From there you can select the specific type of incident report you need to file.
