Second Global Entry Reimbursement?
My wife and I got Amex Plats last year and both got Global Entry. At the time they told us children under some age (14?) weren't eligible for GE. Now it seems like they've gotten rid of the limit and children can get GE. So my question is, if I apply for GE for my daughter using the Plat, will the second fee also get reimbursed? Anyone have experience with this? (I would guess that if there were multiple GE charges all at once, they wouldn't all get reimbursed, but I was wondering if I might get lucky because they're spaced out in my case.)

If I remember correctly, Amex gives up to three authorized user cards for the 175 fee. You could add you daughter to your amex account, generating a new authorized user card for her. This way, amex will see the new gloabl entry fee post on a card that hasn't gotten the credit yet. As a side benefit, your daughter's credit would benefit from being an AU.

Considering this as well. I have a corp card with one plat card (mind) and about a dozen gold cards (ee's). I used the GOES reimbursement last year for myself and would now like to get one for my wife. Does anyone have actual experience getting / applying for multiple GOES on the same, exact same, card?

Used it for GE.
Didn't ask anyone, just filled out info online and cards appeared.
Great when we travel as I am only FF, but all three of us get triple-beep at Pre-Check.

However I do also want my boyfriend to get Global Entry, since we frequently travel together internationally-- he also travels a fair amount for work. If I wait until next Calendar year to pay for his, will I get reimbursed?

Ugh, I just filled out my Global Entry application- when I got to that step it made it sound like to interview for Nexus you had to go to one of the enrollment centers near the US/Canadian Border (http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/tr...xus_enroll.xml), so I just went with Global Entry.
