Global Entry Interviews

Make international travel quick and easy with the Global Entry Program! Global Entry is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program that allows expedited clearance for pre-approved, low-risk travelers upon arrival in the United States.

As a member benefit, the Chicago Association of REALTORS® Global Council has invited U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents to our CAR office to conduct in-person interviews.

Global Entry is open to U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents. For further details, visit U.S. Customs & Border Protection.

To proceed with this opportunity, you MUST complete the Global Entry Program application https://ttp.cbp.dhs.gov. The application takes about twenty (20) minutes or less to complete and in-person interviews will last about fifteen (15) minutes.

IMPORTANT: You are welcome to sign up for an interview time slot today for yourself (and immediate family members). Immediately after you register for your interview time, you MUST complete the detailed instructions listed below.

If your application is NOT approved one week prior to the interview date, your scheduled interview time will be canceled.

Please note the CAR office is an onsite location ONLY. Your confirmed in-person interview time DOES NOT guarantee Global Entry application approval. All questions regarding your application can be directed to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
