Does the online application process take a long time or is there instant approval? I want to do enrollment on arrival for this week.
PM me for airline compensation help. Your case is not lost!

I submitted my recertification on 5/11/22 and was pending till last week 3/4/23, when I was approved without the need to be reinterviewed.

That's almost a 10 month wait.

You may get an approval in a day or two, but if your flight out is tomorrow, you should IYH be able to do a drop in interview on your return to the US.

Has anyone successfully gone through the process of changing the last name after marriage on the global entry account?

We asked them in the airport, and they said we should be able to do it online, but then, when we went online, the website was unclear and said that you need to visit a staff location ..

I did it a couple of years ago. I think I updated the passport online and then showed it to them when my daughter had an appointment anyways.

assisted a friend signing up, and made a typo with their name

got approved, and did EOA and told them to fix the name (JFK). Now 3 weeks later it's still showing "schedule interview". Flew again this week and stepped in by EOA (EWR), but was told "can take 30 days to update" and "got to call JFK for any questions"
