When it was piloted, PreCheck was explicitly not available for any portion of an itinerary with an international component. That seems to have been relaxed somewhat, though it appears that you are still substantially less likely to get PreCheck for the domestic portions of an international itinerary than for a purely domestic itinerary. TSA has stated that North American and Caribbean itineraries will eventually qualify for PreCheck, though they have not revealed a specific timeline.
