heres the deal, if you just sign your kid up for GE, there will be a $100 fee

http://www.globalentry.gov/applicationprocess.html
http://usa.immigrationvisaforms.com/travel/global-entry-for-children
http://milepoint.com/forums/threads/global-entry-fan-club.13965/page-8

if however, he gets nexus, which is free, he gets GE automatically for free

so if youre close to a nexus center (such as canada/us border), that would be the cheaper way to go

How long does it take till they review my application? i applied 10 days ago and still didnt recieve a email, how long more should i expect?
You won't receive an email. You're supposed to check your account every few days.
I meant a email as in a message in my account, I keep on checking every day and it still says my application is pending.
How long did it take everyone here to get accepted?

I think the Global entry is a one time credit.

At one point it was working for more than just one time, but not sure if its still like that.

You can add up to 3 cardholders for a $175 fee which gets refunded if you cancel within 60 days of opening account.

Costs $$$

Oh, so you are keeping your Platinum card open?
Even so you can get one and just close the AU I believe.

Leave AU out of the picture. Can I get on my card every year a GE?

Thinking of taking the 'risk' and applying my dad for GE on my card.
