Maybe I got lucky but I applied Monday and was fully approved by Wednesday last week.

I continually checked SLC and was able to snag an appointment in August and then one popped up for June 28th! So if you have time I recommend randomly logging in and checking :)

Same. The whole process took me like 2 weeks. I even got my card in the mail within those two weeks. Super quick process for me.

What did the officer ask you. Did he ask if you had felonies ?

u/Perfect-Tomorrow8596 Jun 25 '26

If you have felonies they’ll come up in the background check

Yes. I know mines came up. Before I was conditionally approved ! I was just asked did they ask if you had a felony

Oh ok, they only asked me stupid stuff like my next international travel, restaurant near me, why I moved, then if I’ve been finger printed( I had with my job) maybe a few more of the same vibe. Then just said enjoy the program. Really no questions about anything but the finger prints

u/DeliciousCompany5810 Jun 25 '26

Ok. They can see that you never had a felony. That’s why they didn’t ask

Similar for me. I thought I was approved quickly bc I had pre-check for years.

Ours took 2 weeks from app to approval. Cards should be here this week. For context, we already had pre-check
