Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere. Arriving in BOS and hoping to do EoA. Flight arrives at 19.30 and office appears to close at 20.00. Travelling in first so hope to be off the plane quickly. What are the chances of getting approved in time? If not can I do this landslide at BOS? Returning from YUL would this be a possibility? I can't find any details of times etc on the GE website for YUL. Thanks

Enrollment on Arrival is available only when going through passport controls when entering the US.For landside processing without having an appointment, please refer to the Global Entry Walk-In Interviews thread.

Quick question - I have submitted my application for GE and the website site says:
"Please remember to revisit our website for your application status updates. Notification of when you may schedule an interview appointment (if one is needed) will only be posted here."
Does that mean I have to keep checking the website to see when I have been conditionally approved or will they email me?
The website says application in progress - waiting for conditional approval. However I did not get any confirmation via email that I had submitted / completed my application.

I doubt it. Global Entry is linked to a passport. Do you have both passports listed in your Trusted Travel profile? It used to be required to scan a passport. It may work now with facial recognition; however, it will likely associate your photo with your UK issued passport.

OK folks. Confirming that DFW has an Enroll on Arrival separate immigration booth - booth 60 which is the very furthest away from the Global Entry machines. The line manager told me about it when I asked. My BA193 arrived on time. I deplaned at 1702hrs, hit booth 60 at 1708hrs, and my “interview” was completed 1 minute later. Absolutely superb service.
havnt had the email confirmation yet but the agent said 24-48 hours. He didn’t even look at or scan my passport and said the camera recognised me already from previous visits.
good luck all.

Data Point: Arrived JFK approx 14:00.
Was one of the first into the empty immigration hall. Asked for EoA, told by the queue managers to tell immigration officer in the booth. He cleared me for immigration and then tilde me to take a seat in the baggage hall. They then cleared the entire flight through immigration before the same very friendly and helpful officer did my interview at the booth.

First went to immigration booth 1 (as I thought I understood the instructions), which is used for Diplomats. Was asked to queue in the Visitors line, clear immigration and the officer directed me to line 1 in the Customs area. There was an officer waiting, was processed very quickly in around 10 minutes. Very efficient.
Email confirmation arrived in my inbox 2-3 hrs later. TSA Pre was not active yet for my following morning flight, but worked well a few days later.
Got to use GE through an international transit at DFW last week. It took less than 30 seconds to clear immigration, this is life changing! :-D
