Wording seems to imply I'm applying for a new Nexus card so I wonder if I did something wrong.

CBSA site says:



but TTP site says:



and the button is "Apply for Nexus" which makes me wonder if I took the wrong path. Am I in the right place there?

Also, I wondered about renewing by paper vs online. The latter is easier but the former is $15 cheaper (USD vs CAD). Is there any functional difference? If I'm not going to need an interview I can wait an extra week or two, but if there is in fact always an interview I probably have to apply now.

Finally, will I get a full 5 years? This card was issued in Sep 2012 and expires Mar 2018, so I assume the new one will expire Mar 2023.

Thanks!

I can answer the third question.

You get five years added on to your old expiration date, which is your birth date, so if your old card expires in March 2018, the new one will expire in 2023.

I renewed mine last month, without an interview.
