I applied in Feb and still not processed.
We renewed some family members' and they processed immediately
I renewed last week and was approved in less than 24 hours. No interview needed either.

I just renewed my Global Entry and it now says "approved". There is no mention of "conditional approval" and no link to schedule an interview. Have they stopped requiring an interview for renewals?

A lot of people don't have to have another interview for renewal. I didn't need one either.

Do they determine that at initial interview?

Applied for my sister on Sunday, and just got an email.
 
"There has been a recent change to the status of your application. Please login to the Trusted Traveler Programs Website (https://ttp.dhs.gov) for more information."

I forgot to save the codes they give you when filling out the application, when i ask for another method i get this.

"If you can't use any of the authentication methods above, you can reset your preferences by deleting your account."

How do i know if she got approved?

Didn't get a response to my question here so gonna try in this thread:
When I used the GE kiosk at my last entry, it didn't ask for the usual fingerprints, passport scan, customs questions, etc. After the initial picture, it printed my receipt and we were on our way. Both of us used different kiosks...Is that a normal occurrence?

Same happened to me in EWR a month ago.

Can they prosecute if someone is found with, say, meat, after not been given a chance to declare?
Really strange...

I was actually worried about that because I had food with me that I wanted to declare, but after there was no place to declare I threw it into the nearest garbage.

And then there was no one standing by the customs desk and I walked right out of the airport...

Both my wife's and my GE are expiring this year (sep and dec respectively) I got credits from someone so I already renewed.
I'm a foreign citizen with green card, wife is US citizen.
Wife got conditionally approved within 2 days, but seems like she needs an interview, can we just do it upon arrival in JFK? (we're flying internationally soon).
Since her's doesn't expire till Dec, will she still get 5 full years from Dec?
No updates on mine yet, I'm curious if that's because I'm not a US citizen.
I also switched the passport I used, I had 2 foreign passports, the one I previously used has expired and not been renewed, so I put the other in this time.

Mine is expiring soon.
I not sure if I should renew which may require an interview for which I have no time an patience or just get TSA PRE which is what I mainly use it for.
(When I fly international I usually fly into ORD where I haven't found GE to make much of a difference in time)

If I apply just for TSA PRE might I also need an interview?
If I apply for GE and then they ask for interview, can I just cancel the renewal and apply for TSA PRE only?
Would my Sapphire reserve card reimburse me either way?

Renewals generally don't require interviews, though more chance of not requiring one if you renew it before it expires.

CSR covers GE/PreCheck.
