I didn't get an answer but I paid the £42 again for the Access Number and have subsequently renewed on the TTP site for $100. This involves confirming existing information. The TTP site shows my application as "pending review". No idea how long this will take or whether I will be required to attend an interview in the US again.

I might have some time to kill at Dulles airport today, so might go down to the interview office and ask. They might not know about the back-end stuff, but it doesn't hurt to enquire.

Where to enter my UK Access Code on the Trusted Traveler site?
Hi - has anyone tried to enter their UK Access Code on the Trusted Traveler site? This is my first time applying and I've received mine from the UK Border Force and been searching online about where to include this in my Global Entry appllication, but not found anything. All the instructions online refer to the old GOES site that no longer exists. Perhaps I don't need it until my interview? Any help appreciated, thanks!

Mine was super fast!
UK border force cleared me within 24 hours (Received 9th Jan)
Filled out GE application on 9th January itself and received conditional approval today 18th January.
Took a total of just 9 days! I have traveled to the US recently so I wonder if that caused my application to go through quicker.

Is it possible for a UK citizen with Global Entry to obtain a physical GE card? Without it, it's not possible to enter the trusted traveler (GE/Nexus) security lane at Toronto T3 traveling on AA.

All three staff at T3 TSA agreed that it was not possible to enter the GE 'trusted traveler' security line without a physical GE card. It's still possible to use the GE machines once you get through security. It meant we were not able to use the TSA Pre facilities and had to queue up for longer and go through the old fashioned rigmarole.

However, last time I did that - I got past by being annoying and persistent (took less time than standing in the huge queue), while I was stood in the queue to go through the scanner - I heard someone else behind me fail to get through doing the same thing.
The very last time I went through T3 - the main security queue was empty, so I chose not to fight.

Is there a possibility any of your British parents or grandparents were physically present in Canada on January 1, 1947, or married to / born to / naturalized as a Canadian citizen? You might be a citizen without even knowing it.

There's a great deal of discussion on the problems of Global Entry members using the CATSA fast lane without a Global Entry card in this thread:
