Little update from me - renewal of a (just) expired Global Entry came through on the 21st December stating my application had been approved and GE Status granted without an interview.
Timeline:
Jan 2020 - existing Global Entry expired. Immediately applied for renewal and background check from UK Border Force.
Feb 2020 - Received background check result from UK Border Force, provided to DHS. GE portal states 'pending review'
December 2020 - status changed to approved on GE portal and shows as live. No re-interview required.
