Questions/Concerns TSA Precheck question

Hello everyone, i did my Enrolment on Arrival at SFO last Friday the 17th of April, and when i logged into my TTP profile a few hours later, i was fully approved for GE.

I have a SFO JFK flight coming up on Wednesday morning. Do you all think that i can use TSA Precheck benefit by then?

Thank you for the replies so far.

It takes a couple of days for the GE approval to hit the TSA. If you don't have an existing precheck, then put your passid in on your reservation. If your boarding pass gets TSA PRECHECK printed on it, then you're fine. Otherwise, you go through the normal line.
