It’s a background check. Presumably, a lot of other agencies are involved, especially for people with common names. |

I can tell you I don't have a common name. I think the system is screwed up after the federal government shutdown.

No, the grace period is automatic. Did anything else change? Was this first non-precheck flight booked with a different travel agent/web site? Did you verify that your reservation's Secure Flight Passenger Data fields match your TTP profile?

I applied for renewal on March 25 and was approved on April 3, so it's probably not the partial shutdown.
Clearly there are apps (new or renewal) that require addl scrutiny. I have zero legal or court or criminal issues, but there is something that flagged something. or the government is a bunch of understaffed imbeciles. |

My global entry is expiring this Friday. I applied for a renewal, paid and submitted my application 15 days ago and I am still "Pending Review"
I would have thought that I would have had a quick and (nearly) automatic approval since I already hold the status but I guess not |

30 days and counting - still shows as "Pending Review"
I am at just about 2-1/2 months. |

I would have thought that I would have had a quick and (nearly) automatic approval since I already hold the status but I guess not "If you submit a renewal application before expiration of your current membership, then you can continue to use your benefits until the renewal is finalized (up to 6 months after your expiration date)" Also, the timeline for renewals seem to be the same as initial applications - you get some sort of approval within the first two weeks, or then it's around 70 days or later. |
I applied for renewal on January 24 and I received my new card yesterday. Looks like I was approved on April 9 by the Otay Mesa branch.
I had sent an email via the website at the end of March asking what was taking so long. It would be interesting to track the location of renewals as being reviewed by the busiest land border crossing in the world probably had something to do with my delay. |
Where did you see the branch?

This should be in the approval letter.
