Q: Can I work for the state of Florida? I didn’t do selective service but I didn’t know I had to do it I have a SIL letter
Each agency shall provide for a review, when requested by the applicant or employee, of any denial of employment or promotion for reasons of noncompliance with selective service registration requirements.
A: To potentially work for the state of Florida without Selective Service registration, contact the specific agency of interest to inquire about their policies and whether they consider your circumstances, including the SIL letter, when making employment decisions. The Selective Service System Information Letter (SIL) you received may be taken into account, but individual agency policies vary.
