Timeline and payout

About

The FBI Director oversees the Federal Bureau of Investigation and reports directly to the Attorney General. Appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, the Director serves a single term of up to 10 years, a limit established to prevent extended tenures like J. Edgar Hoover’s. President-elect Trump has nominated Kash Patel for this role, but he has yet to be confirmed by the Senate. (Source: FBI.gov)
