People always cancel.
Is BOS ok with walk-ins?
One last thing. if he interviews and gets approved. for pre-check purposes, Will he be able to get the Known Traveler Number from the Officer right after approval or does he have to wait for the card? Are GE-privileges active immediately after approval?
The number will be in the pre-approval letter, it doesn't change.
I just did my interview at Boston and they were running about 5 people ahead of schedule. Scheduled for 7:30pm, arrive at 6:40pm. A CBP guy stuck his head out and just waved me over. In-and-out within 10 minutes.
As far as walk-in, the officer said "it depends". They have the discretion to pull up your application and do the interview if they want to, but it's not a locked-in procedure.
