anyone manage to confirm 14 and under even with Nexus are out for GE?

Update on Nexus/GE merge
 

Phoned US CBP at YHZ today and inquired if I really had to come for a second interview....and voila, I'm suddenly fully enrolled...no second interview needed. Yup, on GOES, I'm a full Nexus and GE member.

So, I asked about getting a sticker, and again, am told that a sticker is no longer required for GE/Nexus members....we'll see eventually I guess!

If you're relatively close to Buffalo, it might be worth it for you to drive there for the interview. Within a week, I received conditional approval and was able to schedule an interview in Buffalo within the same week. If I wanted to do the interview at YYZ, the earliest appointment was about 3 months out!

I've had Nexus for a short while. A month ago, flying out of YYZ I go to the scanner, answer the questions (nothing that should get me to secondary inspection) and got my slip. Went forward and was about to show it when one of the other agents standing there saw my slip and said I needed to go in here - basically, the secondary section. I think someone using it behind me did too. So - had to sit down, wait about 5 minutes and then they called me up, asked me a few questions, just like normal and I was on my way. Thankfully it was short, as other times it's usually a long wait and I was cutting it close for my flight.

I assume this is just random - sometimes happens. What is really ironic, this particular time, the lines for customs were basically empty! I made the flight find... just found it odd since I've only used it a few times and already had to wait in secondary.

Do you remember the code on the slip?

I was at YYZ a few weeks ago and the lineup exiting the hall went literally right across the entire baggage area. Is there a "priority" exit for NEXUS or do you have to stay in line with the masses (This is for Canadian customs)?

you don't have to stay in that line, same happened to me in november in YYZ, just go to the guys who review your boarding pass prior entering immigration area, and tell them you're nexus, they will let you go in right away.

According to the NEXUS brochure, this will happen 10% of the time. I too got my first secondary and it's only the 4th time I've used NEXUS.

Secondary was quite painless for me. I wasn't sure what to do at first once I had entered the area. I did see a few people sitting down but it wasn't immediately obvious to me what I should do so I just stood there. Within a few seconds though my name was announced so I went to the desk. I was asked where I'm going, why and how much money do I have on me.

Yup! Your card probably said V-RR on it (Visitor - Random Referral) and it means you're up for a secondary.

I think you're talking about different things. He's talk about exiting baggage claim on YYZ after clearing Canadian Customs (where they take your card from you), and it sounds like you are referring to the line up to get into US customs.

I'm sure that's what it said. Cause I stared at it for a long while... Well. Flying out tomorrow, see how this one goes.

Thanks

Thank you again, I'm an hour away from Buffalo and will do just what you suggested, might as well make a shopping trip out of it. :)

You do have to stay in that line. This is the line to exit the baggage hall, right? There is no avoiding it (in YUL if you get behind a jumbo arrival, you're always stuck for a while, same I guess in YYZ). You are thinking of the line to get into US preclearance, and in that case, you are correct.

yes, sorry, I was referring to US immigrations when you leave YYZ. customs lines (on arrival) do not have priority lines.
