If you google 'SC Clearance Nationality' you get a load of links from here but the second non CUK post links to the FCO site and on there it states..
https://www.fcoservices.gov.uk/produ...to/applicants/
Do I need to be a British citizen or have lived in the UK to be vetted?
Some especially sensitive posts are reserved for UK nationals; and certain categories of information may be restricted to UK nationals too. But generally, nationality is not a bar to security clearance though to be vetted we will usually expect a reasonable period of residency in the UK so that meaningful checks can be undertaken.

Look at the last page. There is a question just like yours and the answers are exactly the same for starters. It's riddled with the same question and same answers.

Perhaps don't answer the thread if you want to encourage "killing off answering the same questions time after time", it will save us both time.
Anyway the simple answer has now been given twice at least. Answer the questions honestly and see what happens. Apart from nobody wanting to discuss the clearance criteria in a public forum, you can't do anything to influence the decision anyway so that is all anyone can say about your chances.
So sorry if we don't/won't/can't answer your specific question, but that's reality for you. And you really need to work on your attitude, you're not impressing anyone.

How many more times... We started the sticky to kill off answering the same damned questions time after time.
There are people with serious convictions with SC clearance. All you can do is answer the questions honestly. The investigators already know the "right" answers (and have a good handle on your openness to blackmail or coertion). They are not testing what those answers are, only that you are answering honestly.
