The TTP profile update must be done in person at a Global Entry Enrollment center, however, it is only on a walk-in basis.
Thank you; you brought up an interesting point that I had missed: Once she gets her new passport she has to go to a Global Entry center *in person* to change her name; you cannot do this through the TTP. And, did I hear correctly that you cannot make an appointment for this? They only take walk-ins?
