Now have to figure out where to do an interview as nothing available in Chicago. Of course CA came through two days AFTER I was in Nogales AZ where there is no wait for interviews!
CA received 8/30 - Picked out an interview date as soon and as close and possible (Milwaukee in October) and then kept checking the website for availability here in Chicago.
Late last week a spot opened up for this morning at O'Hare - I quickly grabbed it.
Process today was quick - I arrived right at my interview time - was seen right away, and was out the door with my approved Global Entry/New Precheck number in 5 minutes. Global Entry card should arrive at my home address within a week to 10 days according to the USCBP agent who processed me.
So, if no interview availability, keep checking the website for closer/sooner interview dates.
Good luck everybody.
