The chicanery would match the tolerance of the government for said chicanery. In Thunder Empire, the survivors are polled for skills repeatedly. People who don't have the skills they claim are demoted to criminal status and have to live with the convicts, whose lives are not pleasant. Obviously, there has to be some leeway given. Having the interrogation school on-hand, plus the support of police detectives, helps get the facts out in the open once there is some doubt about whether a given survivor really is a proper chemist, gunsmith, etc.
