new passport on global entry
Have many years left on my global entry status (I think it's good for 10 years?) but passport expires April.
How do I get GE posted on my new passport? Can I just take it to the interview office at the airport?

tried to answer my own question from the GE website, but am now more confused- does it recognize me as GE from the passport ID directly now, and so I do not need to do anythig?

ES web site. I believe you can also do so at one of the GE offices at an airport near you.

Online or go (no appt needed) to any GE processing station. Takes literally 15 secs.
The stickers were solely as a backup in case the machines were down. Apparently, GE now shows when they swipe/scan the passport, so the sticker is not necessary as a backup.

Indeed, but it actually takes literally more than 15 seconds for most people -- and substantially more at GE enrollment locations than it does online.
