Its not about the level of the crime, or the fine paid/time served for it-its about the type of crime, and how a lot of folks reviewing applications view it in relation to what it says about you- the person. I've seen even more minor crimes muck folks up for even a Secret clearance app.

Well funny you say that because I received my Secret Clearance without issues when I was with the D.O.D..... same background.

You really think a 3rd degree Misdemeanor, or what ever it is, will nullify your chances of getting a CWP!?
My FL permit was delayed because I'd been wrongfully arrested,
for something police aren't allowed to arrest for,
that isn't a crime (which is why they can't arrest for it),
that didn't result in charges,
that did result in that city paying out after a federal civil rights suit.

Other than that & a couple tickets each for speeding & parking, my record is completely spotless.

I emailed FL a scan of the letter from the district att'y & pointed out where he said what I did wasn't a crime, pointed out where he said he wasn't charging or ticketing me for anything, & my permit arrived a few days later.

Skid pointed out that you didn't follow directions,
& others have pointed out that you do have a background they need to investigate.
So send them the documentation you forgot earlier & get control of your temper.
