I'm at two weeks now, so I imagine I'll be in the 100+ days bucket as well. I've been at the same address for the last five years, and my international travel patterns haven't changed.

The only prudent advice is to renew as early as possible.

Welcome to the Pending Review Gang. I’m at just 86 days so I figure at least 20-30 days minimum left before I get kicked out of the gang. ☹️

Day 116 and counting. Haven’t moved, changed jobs, or had any travel to questionable destinations.

Conditional approval received today. 118 days.

I renewed on 5 May, my expiration wasn't until 19 July, so I thought I'd be OK. It is good to know they're extending the service for a whole year after the expiration if you renewed before it expired and before 17 April. I don't have any overseas trips planned in the next year, but I do have a bunch of domestic where I'd want my PreCheck available.

I filed my renewal application on April 27, 2019. I finally got an email today saying that my status had changed. I have been approved with no interview required. 116 days in the process.

My concern - although my birthday isn't until May - is that I am enrolled in a reciprocal program, e-Gate for Global Entry with Taiwan. I know the agency that runs that program polls USCBP occasionally because I updated my passport via the TTP dashboard and the update reflected on Taiwan's side within a few days.

If a GE renewal isn't finalized before the expiration date, I don't know how this affects status in reciprocal programs. I haven't seen a data point in this thread, but I imagine a partner program is unable to see the pending renewal and might erroneously cancel enrollment in the partner program thinking that the individual's GE status has lapsed.

after 118 days I finally received approval today. No interview. I assume this because my previous GE that had expired two days before I applied. I want to thank all the posters for your information and your vents. It made the wait bearable knowing we were at least unit together.

There is absolutely no reason not to submit a TTP renewal at the earliest possible date - one day after your birthday, the year before expiration (sometimes referred here as "T-364").

70 days and counting.
Hubby/daughter got new cards < 2 weeks, no interviews.
Hubby has a clearance.
All were applied 2-6 months prior to expiry, all around the same date.
Have marked calendar for day 101 to call and try to escalate...

THERE IS A PHONE NUMBER SOMEWHERE IN THIS THREAD FOR THOSE WHO NEED IT - keep scrolling up.

CA approval today on day 116. Interview needed and soonest was 3 1/2 weeks out. Did I mention I just flew home YESTERDAY from an international flight and could have done interview on arrival?? Always the way.

Over a 100 on PENDiNG REVIEW
 
I am on day 103 of pending review on my renewal. I had security clearance in past but retired since that seems to be a subject of speculation as a hindrance to renewal.

Does the renewal grace period also apply to PreCheck?

My understanding is as long as GE is extended then the PreCheck stays in place and active.

I renewed May 1st and am currently on day 114 :rolleyes:
