For anyone who has interviewed once they landed at airport...
Did the interview process take very long or was there a long line?
I am still waiting to be conditionally approved but based on the banner on top of the ttp site when checking my status, I see that they are trying to get applicants who have been conditionally approved to wait be interviewed at the airport upon returning from a trip. I wondered if it's even worth it or if waiting in the regular customs line would take around the same time.
I applied early June 2019... and still nothing. My husband applied later the same evening and was approved a couple of days later. Then had a scheduled appointment at the airport about a month later and received his card in the mail about a week following.

Does anyone know what's going on at LAX? Am I likely to be able to perform Enrollment on Arrival during a 2h45m change from an international flight onto a domestic one? Or is that not enough time to even bother trying?

Just to give an update on my experience doing EOA at MIA. Arrived at terminal D international arrivals at approx. 10 am. Went to the APC machine and completed the immigration process with my printed receipt. I proceeded immediately to the Global Entry line where I informed the officer I was doing EOA. He made me wait on the side before an officer came to take me to secondary screening. I waited approx 10 minutes before seeing an officer where I was asked simple questions and prints were taken. Whole process took about 20 minutes.

No, it’s on a desktop at home that is shutdown. I think I read on the .cbp page that all I’ll need is our passports.

Folks,
Just a gentle reminder that the Trusted Travelers forum is informational.

Enrollment on arrival at EWR Terminal B is handled at station/line 26. I had travel party members do the Enrollment on Arrival “interviews” for new and renewal applications this month. It was a good experience — not much of anything in the way of being questioned — but sort of slow due to the number of people waiting for the single CBP employee doing EOAs there and the fingerprint scanner having issues with capturing the fingerprints.

I get an email from time to time showing the added EOA locations. So far they all seem to be airports with international flights so I would expect all U.S. international airports to eventually be able to do it. Really doesn't make much sense to do it at non-international airports (like mine) considering the staffing problems CBP says they have.

That makes sense. Enrollment on Arrival interviews are conducted by CBP officers during the admissibility inspections at passport controls. Passengers arriving on domestic flights do not pass through passport controls.

I guess I haven't noticed any new locations on the list... or at least any new locations that are actually of use to me, since BOS still isn't and has no interviews.
