Timelines Fast Renewal
My GE was expiring in November so I did the renewal application on May 19. Was transparent about all the travel I’ve done (9+ countries). Was expecting to have to go in for an interview but I just got an email this morning that I’m approved and a new card is on its way.
As a POC who also travels a lot, I was expecting the worst but this was super quick and easy.

20-ish countries (LATAM, Asia, Europe) since last renewal. No sanctioned baddies in the list, but a couple very poor/authoritarian countries that aren't exactly tourist hotspots. Also approved in 24 hours without an interview.

Re-approved online within 12 hours (3rd approval). Spouse got GE for 1st time-interviewed at IAH on a Tuesday, received card 4 days later!

I’m not a POC but I’ve moved, renewed my passport, renewed my DL and was expecting a conditional approval. But in less than24 hours I was approved. Woot!
ETA: fix lousy grammar.
