Jared Kushner received his security clearance: reports

Updated

Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser, now has a permanent security clearance after longstanding scrutiny over his alleged meetings with foreign officials, sources told The New York Times and CNN on Wednesday.

Kushner had been operating under a temporary security clearance during a pending FBI background check.

He has been the subject of scrutiny in special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation and other congressional probes for revising his SF-86 form used to gain a security clearance and retroactively reporting interactions with foreign officials, including Russians.

This is a developing story. Please check back for updates.
