My information so other people can use it to gauge their time.

Applied: 5/8
No Escalation
CA: 8/27
Total wait time: 111 days

Interview for me is going to wait till a trip i am taking to Miami in October.
The wait times at that airport are the same day (they have like 200 some appointments available per day Monday-Saturday), compared to everything within 500 miles of where i live that first available is in December or next year.

Keep checking multiple times a day. I moved my date three times to within three weeks of CA.

I applied on May 22nd in the Bay Area. It's been 98 days, and I have not heard back yet. Could I escalate?

I will be living in Michigan for the next 3 months, so I'll probably have to schedule my interview for a location in Detroit.

Keep checking diligently especially when your desired enrollment center is open. This coming weekend has high probability of a cancellation, because someone may opt to party/vacation instead of going in for an interview.

Good luck.

Applied: 04/29
Escalated: No
CA: 08/28
Days waiting: 121
Email Received: Yes
Enrollment: 08/28 (on arrival)

So it finally came through. It wasn't until I landed in Denver today that I saw the CA. Worked out well in the end, since I was all done by the time I left the immigration/CBP area of the airport.

Really rather staggers the imagination

Applied for myself, my SO, and my 2 kids
Applied: 8/23, 8/24, 8/24, 8/24
CA: 8/29, 8/29, 8/29, 8/29
Email Received: Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes

We're going to do Enrollment on Arrival around Thanksgiving, I applied only around 100 days before arrival based on the 11 week estimate at CBP's help page titled "Applying for Global Entry"

After applying, I found this thread, and I was getting worried because of all the over 100 day examples exceeding the 100 day estimate at CBP's help page titled "I have submitted my Trusted Traveler application for review. Did CBP receive my application?"

I was starting to get nightmares of someone not getting CA and having to escalate well before the 100 day mark or dealing with finding appointments if we couldn't EoA. I'm so happy seeing the 4 emails this morning (they arrived at around 3am pacific), that I registered just to post this "good data point". I can't post the links to those CBP help pages because I need 5 posts to do that.

Global Entry Application Escalated

I escalated my Global Entry Application after it had been 100 days. I checked the case on CBP.gov and this morning the status of my escalation case is "referred".

Does this mean I should have my Conditional Approval soon or that my case is finally getting reviewed?

Thanks!
