Update Global Entry for Green Card?
I was on an L-1A visa, but my [conditional] green card just arrived.
Do I need to go to an enrollment center to get it updated? The text is a bit ambiguous: Global Entry members who are not U.S. citizens or U.S. lawful permanent residents must maintain updated visa information with CBP. If a Global Entry member obtains a new visa, or obtains a new petition for a work visa, the member must notify CBP in-person at a Global Entry enrollment center. A member must visit an enrollment center to have CBP add visas and/or update visa information. If the visa information is incomplete or not properly updated with CBP, the Global Entry kiosk may incorrectly calculate the member’s Class of admission and admission date. A member must visit an enrollment center in-person to add or update visa information. I first got GE when I travelled under VWP, and already had the painful process of going to the airport and waiting for them to add my L-1 visa. Hopeful I don't need to again... |

I think you do - I certainly did when I became a US Citizen.

Re: Update Global Entry for Green Card?
Interesting - moving from GC to USC would seem explicitly excluded above.
In any case, happy discovery: All document updates can now be done online at CBP website Ask a Question under Topic “Trusted Traveler Programsâ€, followed by “update documents in my account†and “Global Entry†from the drop-down menu. |
Re: Update Global Entry for Green Card?
go to the Global enrollment office at your local airport. I did this when I got my green card. I didn't need an appointment, they just updated my info,,

Re: Update Global Entry for Green Card?
Good luck having your L1 removed from your GE profile after getting GC. It’s Mission Impossible. I tried different airports, different GE offices, Nexus office, you name it. Counting down the days to September when my visa actually expires… What does it mean in practice? I always need to see an officer for processing.

As I say though - seems you can now just submit the request online. |

it's only during the week and using vacation to schlep to an airport to wait for hours to get it changed is not an experience I wanted to repeat.

I submitted online. Will update if this new process actually works.

Re: Update Global Entry for Green Card?
Anyone added NEXUS to GE recently, it has taken about a year for conditional approval, now looking for interview dates, nothing showing virtual. I assume I just have to wait and do it at Toronto Pearson on my next trip that way. Looks like Quebec is to small for an office, so assume there will not even be pre clearance there either on my return…

I assume you are referring to Quebec City as opposed to the whole Province of Quebec as Montreal is in Quebec and they have USCBP Pre Clearance at Pierre Elliot Trudeau Airport in Montreal.
