U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has recently expanded its online services for the Trusted Traveler Programs (TTP), allowing members to update documents and submit requests without in-person visits. The new services, available on the CBP Help website, aim to streamline the process and increase the availability of interview appointment slots.
Through the “Ask a Question” section, TTP members can now update documents such as visas, passports, and driver’s licenses, process name changes due to marriage, divorce, or other legal circumstances, and update their citizenship status. The site also assists with general TTP inquiries, payment and fee questions, and login issues. For more information, CBP encourages everyone to explore the resources available on the CBP Help website at: Ask Us a Question.
By reducing the need for in-person visits, CBP enrollment offices in San Diego and Calexico have increased the availability of interview appointments. Conditionally approved applicants can now log into their ttp.gov account to schedule an appointment during one of the newly opened time slots.
The Trusted Traveler Programs (Global Entry, SENTRI, NEXUS, and FAST) are risk-based programs that facilitate expedited entry for pre-approved, low-risk travelers into the United States. All applicants undergo screening to ensure they meet the program’s requirements. Approved participants can enter the United States using dedicated lanes for travelers at southern border ports and select airports.
If you are a frequent international traveler and have not yet become a member of a Trusted Traveler Program, you can now apply. For more information, visit: Official Website of the Department of Homeland Security Trusted Traveler Programs.
