Question Security clearance question

So I got a interim clearance, I am born outside US. I grow up knowing one person from young age till now. I included them in my clearance, but over the years I have had contact to my other family members due to my parents. I got a big family so do I need to include all these people? I already got interim and if I go outside US, I will eventually meet all these people etc.. so I do I need to let them know now or when I go out of country?

I have a whole post, pinned, regarding foreign contacts.

The time to ask this question and determine the answer was BEFORE you submitted the SF86. Discuss this with your FSO ASAP

If you only see them like once a year for holidays or weddings/funerals, I wouldn't list them. Be sure you only talk about work in very vague terms at these events.

Ask your FSO what the reporting policy is for your clearance level and/or agency. For me I have to fill out a form before and after a trip for pretty much everywhere outside the US.

That’s not a great measure as annually is an option for frequency of contact.

reoccurring and continuing contact is a listable item..
