All of the agencies Have their own requirements and standards, so lumping everything into "CBP" doesn't work.
BTW- I've never heard a USBP Agent referred to as a Customs and Border Patrol Agent.

My source is USAjobs.gov. You can go ahead and look if you like, I already have and the overwhelming majority of jobs within CBP posted do not require a security clearance. Obviously jobs that are not posted for the public are different, but I've already covered that by saying things like "most often CBP employees do not need" and "most often ICE employees do need." And yes, I have personal experience with the security clearance process and hiring requirements of varying agencies, many of which are tasked to monitor and enforce immigration policy and law. All of the information that I've posted is open source, however.
Are
you an employee of the CBP?
I've obviously made generalizations (Border Patrol Agent) because most people don't know the differing agencies involved in DHS or its immigration regulatory arms. I can start using the proper acronymns if you like, but I have a feeling then the conversation will be just you and I. Not that it makes a difference.
