You can check for interview availability (without needing to be logged in) at TTP - Schedule Appointment

This page includes a checkbox you can use to show locations with the soonest availability, although they tend to be few in number and near border towns.

You may also wish to consider:
  • Enrollment on Arrival, which can be done while clearing immigration during international return to the US: Global Entry Enrollment on Arrival
  • Some locations offer walk-in interviews even if you do not have an appointment: Global Entry Walk-In Interviews
  • If you will be passing through MIA, their GE office nearly always has immediate availability and is open very late.

Note also that a location that has literally zero availability for future interviews today, may pop up with available slots tomorrow (or even later today), presumably as people with scheduled appointments do EOA or walk-in thus freeing up their original time slot. So it may be worth checking back periodically.

Does anyone know if more sites Across the country will open up as we move past the July 6th date or will the availability of centers doing interviews stay as is? Probably a stupid question but I am contemplating booking a flight so I can interview and I would love to know if I just wait a bit there might be something closer
More availability will show up after enrollment centers are open.

Checking several times a day at your preferred enrollment center/s will net you an appointment after enrollment centers are open. Cancellation occurs frequently.

Good luck.

Husband forgot his GE was expiring 9/20/19 so didn't apply for renewal prior to expiration. Apply for renewal on 9/24/19 and just today finally got conditional approval and will need an interview. We are in Bay Area and I am not seeing any appointments even starting this fall at SFO. Guess we will just keep checking.

Good luck with that. One of my guys applied in January or February, got conditional approval in March, had an interview appt scheduled in Austin and had that cancelled due to COVID-19 shutdowns. He's in the same boat now, as is an ever growing queue of people who've had their appointments cancelled. Hope you can find one soon, now that things are starting to open back up.

All offices are closed until at least July 6th

You can't make any interview appointments that I know of.

SFO had one slot open when I looked on June 1 for Sept. SFO slots have always been difficult to secure so if you can travel outside of the region, it will be easier.

MCI has opened appointments for July and August. I just booked an appointment for MCI.

Excellent! I snagged two spots and moved my interview to SFO.

How will they ever get through the back log of ppl who were "Conditionally Approved"

I checked locations in oHIo yesterday and they are going in the wrong direction we went from 5 interview locations to just 3.

I understand that thank you
but you think the website would reflect the extended time
mine just shows one year.

Good news is a lot of interview slots opened up.
I was able to schedule an appointment for July 6th at South Bend Indiana but another slot opened up at ORD so i reschedule to O'hare.
I would say the best time to check for the opening slot is after 3AM central time

There was a recent change in availability for the ORD Terminal 5 enrollment center. Based on a post in the GE renewal thread, I checked the availability and there currently are appointments available July 16 2020, and the weekdays (Mon - Fri) the next two weeks.

First decent availability I have seen at ORD in several months.

I have just scheduled an interview in Chicago for Jul-8! There is a lot of time slots that opened up, I assume since they are resuming operations as of Jul-6.

Interview cancelled at SFO. Looks like they won't do mid day interviews but will do early morning or late evening. Had to reschedule
