[Now Open] All CBP TTP Enrollment Centers closed until at least September 8, 2020
My Global Entry interview was supposed to be this March. I got an email just now saying:
FYI,
Effective March 19, 2020, out of an abundance of caution and in the interest of minimizing exposure and controlling the spread of the Novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Outbreak, all US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Trusted Traveler Program Enrollment Centers will suspend operations until at least May 1, 2020. This temporary closure includes all public access to Global Entry, NEXUS, SENTRI, and FAST enrollment locations. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience through this process.

I hope that they later prioritize rescheduling those whose interviews were cancelled. Either that, or extend the deadline further for getting an interview.

Sadly I did not get an email (or my wife ) for our nexus appointment but found out by checking Appointment daily And was canceled Tuesdays and was able to reschedule for may. My only worry is you have 365 days to complete the appointment and for me 365 days will be July. And we were only approved in February

saw today that if you fly and your drivers license has expired you can still use it (domestic travel I guess). And this will stay until 90 days after the all clear is given

Yeah, I logged into the website to check if anything had happened to my appointment in April and saw that it had just vanished. But I also saw the notice about the closures on the main page so I just rescheduled for mid-may. Ah well, I guess my dad will just have to wait to see me until then lol.

GE interview cancelled by DHS
Learned last week (upon login) that my daughter's renewal interview was cancelled by DHS MCO (Orlando).
"Reason for cancellation" was blank.
Nearly sure this is due to COVID-19.
Anyone else?
Also they did not change the schedule-interview-by date (one year from conditional approval).

I do wonder if the July 6 closure date will be modified again?
I live in OR, but have my interview scheduled for late-July in Austin, TX. I scheduled this right at the height of covid. I wonder if I should just reschedule, or wait till closer to the date. Luckily, my flight and hotel are both rebookable.
I was supposed to have my interview on arrival last April but of course flights were all canceled. It will be one year since application by this October, and it won't be until January that I have another international flight. Sigh.

Ugh! My husband just drove to SFO for his appointment today and found out they are all closed. We did not get any email or see any notice. Guess I should have checked FT!
