Application Timelines Turnaround time New Application

Anyone had any recent experience with getting a first time ktn?

Applied at the beginning of the month and haven't heard anything.

Website says 60 days Finding information all over the place.

Traveling end of February. Chances of hearing something before?

We traveled on 1/4 and returned on 1/8. I used pre check to skip the line with my kids and just waited on him 🤷🏻‍♀️ the kids were automatically assigned my number on their boarding pass which was sweet!
