There has been a lot of posts about passports. I just wanted to pass along my experience regarding Global Entry. Mine and my husbands both expired last year. We both have a credit card that covers the cost of renewal. We submitted a renewal for my husband and with in 48 hours his had been approved, and had his new card within a couple weeks. So I applied for mine middle of July and my application still says pending. So the process for renewing these are all over the board it appears, just as passports are. I just thought I would pass this along; if you need to renew, do it in plenty of time. We have a transatlantic, and would love to use it next May.
