Thank you for pointing out global entry is entirely different. The interview is offered at FAR fewer airports than pre-check. Appointments are usually backed up 2 months or more. I had them cancel my appointment for me a week before after a 2 month wait & I had to reschedule another 2 months out. I didn't want any readers of this thread thinking global entry would happen for them in a few days to weeks as the PP is reporting.
It all depends on where you live tbh. In larger areas with multiple appointment locations GE might well be that quick. In NYC I was prepared to wait it out for months like everyone says, and the Customs House location in Manhattan was the typical backed up for months situation but I literally had my pick of same day appointments at JFK when I got the conditional approval email a week after I applied, and walked out of the office an hour later with my KTN.
