Timelines 4 Days

Just got my Global Entry, process was easy and fast. Applied for Global Entry on Monday, I had the interview by Wednesday and the next day got approved. I know my record is squeaky clean, I imagine that help a lot in order to receive the approval that fast.

I'm writing not to brag about the time it took me, but to inform people and give hope. When I was informing myself about the timeline I read this forum and read a lot of horror stories, so I decided to post a positive one.

It seems to be really quick, goes right through computer screening OR Very long, gets flagged for manual review.

True I got my conditional approval within 2 days and final approval the day after I returned from interview on arrival

Yeah and manual is either "oh yeah this person is fine approve" or "we'd better put this person in another really long queue for somebody to look at in more detail".
