DHS
The Department of Homeland Security has a vital mission: to secure the nation from the many threats we face. This requires the dedication of more than 230,000 employees in jobs that range from aviation and border security to emergency response, from cybersecurity analyst to chemical facility inspector. [Their] duties are wide-ranging, but [their] goal is clear: keeping America safe. (source: www.dhs.gov)

1. Are all ISO given the option for AWS? 2. How does telework work? How many days a week? 3. Can you telework from your home if it's 5 hours from the service center? 4. How many different forms will you be adjudicating?

1. Basically, YES (exceptions if you are on "probation or work classified materials)
2. Usually up to 4 days of telework a week once you meet the requirements.
3. No
4. Depends on the division. Usually 1-2 different forms. Sometimes you have to assist other teams/division and you may adjudicate other forms.

All the time ( at least for now) 3. This could change with the Remote Work policies being created 4. Agreed. 1-2 depending on division and workloads.

Just adding my two cents. For question 3; TSC specifically you must live within 4 hours commuting distance from the center. Further guidance will be announced October 1st on the Ecn page.
