Generally, bankruptcy itself will have not have any impact on your ability to obtain or maintain a security clearance. If you think about it, bankruptcy really should make you less of a security risk.
Filling out the security clearance application form, requires you to fully disclose your financial life in great detail. If you are in financial trouble with your creditors, your application form will reveal it. The question is can you place your troubles in context.
