Some useful info.
My GE Expired a week earlier and I hadn't noted the date, until Pre-Ck wasn't on a domestic Boarding Pass.
My application was treated as a "Renewal."
Applied 6/22 and Approved 7/19. Looks like a month is not atypical.
Best thing is that the approval of the Renewal was made without another interview. I had hope (correctly) the "may" in the guidance would apply in my favor. Clean living!
But my First advice in this thread still holds: Reapply BEFORE Expiration, that way you get an extended 6 months beyond Expiration and not have to go through the waiting game with GE and at TSA/Customs!
Best to all of you -- appreciated the support. Safe Travels."Also, a renewal may be approved without needing to schedule another interview. In this case, a new card will be mailed to the address on file."

Thanks MNBP! Still waiting for my approval, so was starting to get worried.

Used GE kiosk on 7/13 and got a notice that it expires it 20 some days. Renewed on 7/14. Received the email that I was approved on 7/19 (from the office at JFK). Impressed at how fast it was, and I thought there may be an issue as my driver's license is from another state (ie not NY).

My wife and I both applied and paid for renewal on 7/17/2018.
We were both approved without interview on 7/22/2018....wow, 5 days!
Question? Will we receive new Global Entry cards in the mail with the new expiration date?
From my TTP Dashboard: A card replacement is not the same as a renewal. If your card replacement request is approved, your program membership's expiration date remains the same.

Note: A Global Entry Card is not required for air travel. A card is required when traveling between the United States and Canada or when arriving into the United States from Mexico at a land port of entry.If you need a replacement card, please begin by selecting a reason why you are requesting a new card:

Does anyone have any insight as to why some people are approved in less than a week and others take over a month?

I have never seen anyone on these threads who can predict or explain anything to do with GE. Very helpful people on this thread but the way this works is a mystery.

Renewal application: June 26
four weeks later, still pending
Anyone have any idea how understaffed CBP may be these days?
Update: Approval received 7/25/2018, no interview required.
