Isn't that more than five years?

I put in for the renewal today. We'll see if travel that includes Lebanon, Israel, UAE and China warrants an interview. I suspect it will. Otherwise, no changes in my application from last time.
BTW, I was surprised that Hong Kong wasn't listed separately. I went there; never been to mainland China.

I got lucky. Got approved less than 1 month after my birthday. 5.9 years for me.

Do you get to keep PreCheck KTN again if you don't reapply for GE?

It was a final approval without need for an interview. I had a change in address, change in jobs, but otherwise nothing really questionable in my travel history (other than China perhaps, which was really HKG).

That's good to hear. I applied for renewal on 9/20. Only change is retirement, so I hope I get approved without interview. Otherwise, it's a day trip to Charlotte for me. I'll report back on my outcome.

Submitted for my and my wife's GE renewal two days ago. Was waiting until I received the CSR so I could get one of the fees covered. Hers expires end of Nov and mine expires in Feb. Application process was fairly easy, but we have moved and my wife has changed jobs, so that added some time to the app process. List of countries in the last 5 years was:
CHINA
DENMARK
GERMANY
NEW ZEALAND
SINGAPORE
SOUTH AFRICA
THAILAND
TURKEY
ZAMBIA
ZIMBABWE
INDONESIA
CAMBODIA
We'll see how this goes. Really hoping to not have to trek out to LAX again (though I know there is now a place at Long Beach as well, the port I think)
Never received any X's. Used it about 5 times each.

However, interview slots are impossible. If I check LAX it just says none are available. Doesn't show me a calendar or allow me to look out into the future - just none are available. Checked Long Beach and there are a dates showing as available there, but if you click on the date, there aren't any actual appt times listed as available. So this is going to be fun.... She expires at the end of November. Won't be travelling internationally in the immediate future, but do want to keep her PreCheck active for XMas time.
Edit:
Now Long Beach is saying no available slots with no calendar. LAX will give me a calendar but nothing for the next 6 months....
