Mr Hyder, TSA Pre <check> ani undi. Kaani daaniki direct process ledu. Some airports don't use TSA and go with a private contractor. Clearme list is very limited http://clearme.com/where-it-works Check the TSA Pre-check list. http://www.tsa.gov/tsa-pre%E2%9C%93%E2%84%A2/tsa-pre%E2%9C%9 3%E2%84%A2-faqs indulo konchem scroll down chesthe you can see the location list based on the Airlines you are traveling on. But the main issue with TSA is they say you 'could' be selected, not guaranteed everytime like Global Entry. TSA vaadi mood batti aa roju Pre<check> eligible members ni fast gaa laaguthaadu lekapothey ledu. I am also not 100% sure yet whether non-citizens are eligible for Pre<check> or not. 01/06/2012 - 169.4;05/04/2012 - 175.8; 8/1/2012 - 179 |

Caveat, clean background lekapothey automatic rejection untundi and we have to go through an ombudsman.

Global Entry ki last week Wednesday or Thursday apply chesaa. Ivaala conditional approval vachesindi. Next personal interview ki vellaali. Appointment teesukovaali, but forums lo cheppina daani batti walk-ins are fine too. Just stop by whenever you are travel through a major airport which has the Global Entry Enrollment Center. interview takes 5-10 minutes anta, just check your passport 7 GC, finger printing, and a demo on how to use the kiosk. 01/06/2012 - 169.4;05/04/2012 - 175.8; 8/1/2012 - 179 |

Jodha:
naaku kooda 5-10 mins lo ayipoyindi Chicago lo, nenu September lo vachinappudu. But, DW january lo vachinappudu 1 hour immi ki, almost 20-30 mins Customs lo pattindanta Washington DC lo.
Maverick: rasp is there a special line?
Chicago lo, immigration counter okka sari visualize chesuko. Andulo, farthest corner to the wall (from the way we approach from the gates) ki aanukoni multiple Kiosks untaayi with Global Entry sign on them. emi lines undavu, max 1 or 2 persons using it, so ATM machine daggara nilchunnatlu kaasepu venuka niluchuntey chaalu. The kiosk process takes less than 60 seconds. it gives a printout, show that form at Customs to skip lines and just breeze through. FlyerTalk forums lo inkaa chaala detailed experiences unnaayi, why people like it a lot etc. Worst case scenario lo (recently the Kiosk area was cordoned off temporarily) the CBP officer guiding people into lines, will ask you to skip all the lines entirely, and just stand next to a CBP counter and go to that officer as soon as he is done with processing his current passenger. This might get some serious stares from people waiting in line, but thats about it. 01/06/2012 - 169.4;05/04/2012 - 175.8; 8/1/2012 - 179 |

For those who don't know...... GC or Citizen ayithey, Global Entry ki apply chesukovachu. Deeni valla Immi and Customs lines skip cheyyochu at POE. Immi clearance ki Kiosks untaayi at almost all major points of entry. okavela kiosk lekapoyina, you can skip lines and directly go to the crew lines or any CBP counter. Customs ki kooda either a separate line or just skip the whole line to the front. Application fee $100 - valid for 5 years. This application fee is re-imbursed by Amex Platinum (so it is FREE) and also by United Airlines if you are Premier Platinum or higher. Basic gaa be treated like a VIP at point of entry. recently DW ki washington DC lo 1 hour pattindi to clear Immigration. 01/06/2012 - 169.4;05/04/2012 - 175.8; 8/1/2012 - 179 |
