Criteria- positions involving confidentiality vary from one another. Thus, each screening
is custom made’. Any future /present job and personal vulnerabilities security risk is assessed by
the AIVD. The suitability of any position is not subject to the issuing of a statement of no
objection. Any of these indicators in the security screening could constitute into a national
security risk. The assessments are based on identifiable and based on fact manner.
The procedure- selection procedures have to be completed in case one wants to apply for
any position involving confidentiality. These are made to the employer or future employer and
one is required to apply for AIVD security screening. There are more procedures which are
carried out and they are as follows: one is informed on how to complete the application and
about the security screening by the present or the future employer.
In some cases, it is possible to use eOPG which can ask one to provide the personal
information about one self, family and friends. One must answer all the questions in full. One
may not be able to print it out incase he/she does not answer the form well. One can use a paper
form in case there is absence of internet and this likely to be provided by the present or future
employer.
The completed forms and enclosed enclosures that is the passport and identification copy
are placed in a sealed envelope and handed over to the present or future employer so the
employer has no access to it. The security screening is carried out by the AIVD. Eight weeks
after the form has been received, the AIVD informs the involved of the outcome. One is
informed accordingly incase the screening is likely to take longer than eight weeks. A statement

of no objection is issued to both employers in case the screening does not give a good cause not
to appoint you.
The AIVD is in a position to withdraw or refuse an objection certificate and in this cases,
a notification is send out to to withdraw or refuse the VGB. One is allowed to give a response to
these intent or notification ( Yang, 2018 ). Again, the statement of objection might be issued after
the decisions are reviewed. One can appeal against the decision with the appealing committee in
case you receive a definite withdrawal or refusal. In case one disagrees with the appeal
committee, he/ she can proceed to appeal to the council of state or the courts.
