Hmmm. I may just have to register the wife in Global Entry instead of Sentri if that means she can accompany me in the vehicle through the Sentri lane...

YakDout · 02-13-2017, 05:42 PM

Sentri comes with global entry.

My interview was at otay mesa 6 30 done. By 7 easy.ok

Mahigeer · 02-16-2017, 09:59 AM

Looks like by April many of us will have the Sentri card.

With the kitchen done and more room at the "inn" there will be less of hardship and more of fun than before.

Mahigeer · 02-17-2017, 04:00 PM

Thanks.

Now it will be easier to carpool with other Sentri card holders, if needed be.

makobob · 02-20-2017, 10:40 AM

72 Hrs

and my interview will be over and 10 minutes later I will cross the border headed to paradise, this trip to work on kitchen interior cabinets and countertops, maybe even cut in the sink. Might even look for a corvina for dinner. Tight Lines.

Going on nearly 2 months and no news on the GOES inbox front :/ Still a pending application from 01/04... Should i expect a denial soon here? (I'm not a criminal or anything that I know would disqualify me

) Or is it just that time of year and i should expect the approval any day here? Not that you're experts but shoot...

I applied 12 Dec, tentive approval 15 Feb, sentri meeting 23 Feb, Mine is in the mail and should be here around the 10th of March..

So your tentive approval should VERY SOON. Mine was 63 days.

defjack · 03-02-2017, 05:13 PM

Got mine 8 days after interview.lm all set now

Two months, Dont worry mine was like that for around four months. For some reason, they like approving some people faster than others. You'll still get it, as did I.

Brandon were you not working on base at the time, that would have slowed it down a week or two. When we going fishing again bud?

I actually was working on base at the time, so Im surprised I didnt get approved sooner. Could be my dual citizenship. I have a german passport as well, cant remember if I declared it or not. I need to make a deal on a new yak, then we will talk fishin! Already putting the bug in my boss's ear that Ill be out of town for a week in OCTOBER!

MrPukaShell · 03-03-2017, 04:41 AM

I already inked the calendar for two weeks in October. Liked the look on the bosses face when she saw that one.

makobob · 03-14-2017, 04:14 PM

10 March O'dark thirty left for Gonzaga, GREAT weather window. 85-90 degrees, no wind. Full Moon, 25 lb WSB caught at Punta Buefeo. Kitchen coming along really nice.

Just got home, wife said SENTRI arrived day I left. ACTIVATED.
And of course my wait at the Mexicali/Calexico was 14 minutes. But that should be my LAST LONG WAIT. Mexico here I come again. Leaving Sunday.

Tight Lines.
