The below answer is not true. I have a felony and have a clearance. The government just wants you to be honest.
Yes, but you won't be able to get a security clearance. Many federal jobs require you to have and hold a security clearance.

If it's only a state felony, and not a federal felony, there might be a chance. But it's going to require a lawyer, a good bit of money, and an understanding that nothing is guaranteed.If yours is a federal felony (even though charged by the state, anything declared a felony under federal law is going to be a federal felony), your odds are slim to none, bordering more closely to none.Additional: SOME states do allow felons convicted of state offenses to petition for the restoration of firearms possession. It depends on certain factors as to whether or not it may be granted. If granted the restoration of their possession it is valid ONLY WITHIN THAT STATE. They may not carry in another state.As stated above, restoration of firearms possession after being convicted of a federal offense is non-existent. Although the framework for such a procedure exists, the Congress has consistently denied the funding to enable it.
