The era of continuous vetting (CV) has left many security clearance holders confused about their self reporting requirements. The implementation of CV combined with the release of Security Executive Agent Directive (SEAD) 3, which formally goes into affect August 24. SEAD 3 requires government contractors to report foreign travel, foreign contacts, foreign activities, and also includes the 'nark rule' - the need to report on counterintelligence concerns for others they know to hold a security clearance. The SEAD also requires self-reporting new adverse information, specifically bankruptcy, drug and alcohol treatment, arrests, cohabitants, and marriages.
