I know they had it and a GDR on the list, but they are finally cleaning up a bit, as it sounds.

(I do find it interesting that Transnistria flies the Russian flag next to its own, yet Russia has not officially recognised it.)

Transnistria and Somaliland are not officially recognised by any UN member states, so the fact that the US does not have them on the GE list is not surprising.

At my renewal, I didn't include my border trips on the form. At the interview, I was asked "Did you take any trips to Canada?" "Nope." "Did you take any trips to Mexico?" "Yup." "Why didn't you include it on the form?" "Because the instructions say not to." "Good answer! You're good to go. Stare into the camera and put your fingerprints on the scanner."

IIRC it used to specify the previous 5 years - so I went by 5 years prior t the current date. I wonder - is that not correct now?

I hope this is still the case. I just submitted GA application, using my passports as my database but missed one/some Schengen countries since the passport wasn't required at those places.

Why would your memory serve you any better at the time of your interview than at the time of your application? Your passports will certainly bear the same stamps . . .

Don't "wrap yourself around the axle" trying to be extraordinarily precise about individual Schengen countries. Just mention those countries during the interview - no problem.

EDIT: BTW, not one single question asked in the "interview." He took our fingerprints and photo. Wrote our number on an info sheet for us and said the cards would arrive within 3(?) weeks. They did.

Accidentally let my Global Entry expire in April.
Just reapplied today. Have been to 30 countries since my last application in 2016. Including some favorites like Egypt! (But hey, no one batted an eye during my first Global Entry interview ~2011 when I had Syria down on my list of recently visited countries.) I've also moved countries since my last renewal. Will be interesting to see what happens!
