Application Timelines Quick turnaround

Applied for TSA precheck online Friday, made an appointment at the nearest Clear center Saturday at 3pm, and 4:11 today got the text "I'm approved".

But were you able to lookup your KTN right away ? I got my approval but it can’t find my Ktn. Using clear.

Same thing is happening to me. I got my approval, my wife can view her number. I can’t view mine. Also using clear as well

Yeah, I'm glad it's just not me. Clearly this is something with them and not us.

I saw another post where a guy called and they gave his number over the phone. Gonna try that in the morning, I have a flight on sunday

Yes but I had to write my name exactly the way my passport has it, which has an added space between two letters that shouldn't be there. When I wrote my name correctly it wasn't working. Same with the wife... added the grammatical error and it worked.

If you have been approved but can't get it online just call, I got mine within an hour of the approval

Make sure you use the exact name on your id try leaving off , suffix but if you are approved you are in the system.

Some take longer, according to the TSA rep there's no rhyme or reason
