Given the current NEXUS processing times, and my GE expiring in 3 months (July), is there any sense in just renewing GE first to ensure uninterrupted access, and then adding Nexus later? I doubt I'll be going to Canada often between now and then.
When logged into TTP for your Global Entry account, just hit the “Renew Now” button. This will take you to a page where you can choose between renewing your existing Global Entry or applying for Nexus or SENTRI. Worked for me.
