Applied for renewal: Oct 4, 2016
Approved (no interview required): Nov 1, 2016

I applied six months prior to expiration since I expected a 10-12 week review period and then an interview. I was pleasantly surprised with the results. The new expiration date is a 5 years and 5 months from now

Nexus Renewal

Applied 14 Nov 16
Approved 20 Dec 16

No interview required

It is interesting to see that many members got their membership renewed without the need for an interview ^

Renewed 11/7
Approved 12/21
No interview required

I renewed [Moderator note: Global Entry] (as part of NEXUS renewal) recently. I wasn't due to expire until May. They simply extended the expiration by 5 years as expected (to 2022) once approved.

I did get an extra year by doing my original NEXUS membership in the summer shortly after my birthday, back in 2011 (had made the mistake of GE first that time, so paid for BOTH programs originally, with GE in 2010 IIRC).

Card received 12/27.

Applied (via mailing of paper renewal application) : 11/9
Credit card charged: 11/14
Approved: 1/3
No interview required.

Thank you for sharing. Is your new NEXUS valid for five years from previous expiration date or five years from your next birthday?

It's unclear at the moment. I will update my post when the card arrives.

My prior card expired on my birthday in 2017. The renewal card is good through my birthday, 2022, so in my case, both.

Another data point...

Renewal application submitted - Dec 18/16
Approval notification - Jan 21/17
Total time - 1 day short of 5 weeks
No interview required
Membership online shows valid until my birthday of 2022

That was easy! ^

New Nexus card expires on my birthday 5 years out.

Thank you for letting us know. Just want to clarify that your new NEXUS card is valid more than five years from now. If that is the case, I shall renew or make an interview appointment, if required, a day after my birthday/expiration date..
