Of she hasn't changed her name yet, how would you put her future last name on the application? And why would you put her future name in previous last names?
Life isn't about checking the boxes. Nobody cares.

Put in her current legal name. - maiden name.  When she changes it, send in the documentation and they'll change the global entry pass. I assume.  Peoples names do change over the course of 5 years.

Like the "I assume"......
When she gets her new "passport" you will have to go down to a GE office to have it changed

Thanks. Was just making sure that I wasn't wasting an app by using her current name in case they don't honor the change - although, I didn't really see why it would be different than updating her license or passport etc.

I would schedule an appt. the agents at EWR when I went there jokingly gave a woman a hard time for coming an hour late. But they seemed like they enjoyed the tiny bit of power than they have so I wouldn't risk it unless you're there anyway.

They told me no more walk-ins.

But they opened more appointment slots to accommodate.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Can you add precheck to a ticket you've already booked? Where do you do that?

There is no guarantee you'll get it, but you can add your trusted traveler number on your profile of your FFN.

I've heard your chances of getting expedited screening as a trusted traveler is not as high with SW. Anyone here with experience? I'm 3/3 with Delta/UA (got global entry a month or so ago).
