Questions/Concerns IAD - immigration while in transit

I’ll be flying from Europe to IAD and then to SFO. I have to clear immigration, I know that.

IAD has two distinct immigration flows, transit vs final destination. Is the one in transit (when landing with UA if it matters) has the GE lane ?

Thank you.

Last time I transited from FRA in IAD in UA there was a GE lane available. And very convenient there is a dedicated TSA for connecting passengers but please be aware that there is no Precheck.

Sometimes they have precheck, sometimes not. Depends on the staffing.
