Well I altered the kid account profile as using Gmail - just added a "." period to somewhere in my gmail address. Gmail ignores these and just sends it to the text portion of the address. e.g. if you are: [email protected] you can use a [email protected] address - looks like to GOES as an un-used address but gmail will just route it to [email protected]

EDIT: For the 5 year old on her application - 30 mins after posting above got conditional approval

INITIAL APPLICATION: 4/2/2017
CONDITIONAL APPROVAL: 4/10/2017
INTERVIEW: 4/13/2017

Original Appt was a not so bad 6/21 at San Diego Airport - Looking one hour later was able to get ONE open LAX slot this week

Note: I logged in and saw the interview setup and conditional approval - the LETTER which you need for the interview didn't show up for an hour and a half after i noticed the change. Got the email 10 mins after the change but letter took another hour or so
