8. It is a Felony...

The falsification of data, including the failure to fully disclose all required info., on a Security Clearance Renewal Form SF-86 is a Felony.

This is a separate issue independent from his failure to initially include foreign income on the personal income disclosure forms he submitted in Feb.



According to Cummings, Flynn applied to renew his security clearance - using a form called a SF-86 - in January of 2016, just month after he traveled to Moscow to give a paid speech. During a dinner at that appearance, he was seated with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

There is "no evidence in the documents that he reported funds he received for his trip" and "no evidence he sought permission to obtain these funds from a foreign source," Cummings said Tuesday, noting that knowingly falsifying or concealing a material fact in an SF-86 is a felony.
