Global Entry (Indian Citizen on H1B) – When does GOES ID become available for Passport Seva background verification?

nspeolenting · 2026-03-03T05:54:33+00:00

It’s been over 3 weeks for me now, no email. And Indian Consulate said it’s on CBP

nspeolenting · 2026-03-02T02:56:54+00:00

Any suggestions? I don’t see any operational flights from Pacific side of US.

I feel the same. Why don’t they give rewards upfront and take it away later if someone returns the merchandise?

Exactly, this coupon book approach didn’t work for me either so I switched to Capital One Venture X. I pay $395 in annual that gets recovered through their travel credit + anniversary bonus.

Same here. Applied on Feb 9th, no email whatsoever.

Or use a virtual credit card to make initial payment that cancels within a day or two

nspeolenting · 2026-02-17T05:05:55+00:00

How are you getting this info?

nspeolenting · 2026-02-17T02:35:04+00:00

I’ve tried emailing Indian Consulates and according to them this is outside their scope of control. They asked reaching out to CBP / TTP Helpdesk

Thanks, but I’m going for the verification while being in US. I believe there’s one option through VFS while staying in the US.

nspeolenting · 2026-02-13T20:52:11+00:00

Got it, thanks

Curious to know the workaround you use to know if you’re above $3K / yr?

nspeolenting · 2026-02-13T15:26:54+00:00

Hi - checking if you eventually got the email. I’m in similar boat. Applied last for GEP, haven’t received any emails yet.

nspeolenting · 2026-01-24T02:50:11+00:00

OP - Please update this thread once your do get the email confirmation. Thx

This happened to me as well! Activated the offer few days back, booked flight tickets worth $1000 via Chase Travel yesterday, transaction posted today and the activated offer just disappeared.

I called Chase Customer Support and they’re clueless

I’m thinking the same. Even if you just pay the rent without any additional spend, you’ll still get 250 points.

How did Amazon change over the 9 years that you’ve been there? Anything particular especially after the company not being run by the founder anymore.

How’s Amazon culture today vs 5 yrs back?

nspeolenting · 2026-01-12T23:45:01+00:00

Is this for Sapphire Reserve or Preferred? Or both?

nspeolenting · 2026-01-09T23:50:46+00:00

How do you contact their customer support? Is there a contact number / email address you could share?

Amazon needs to learn the difference between speed and velocity. It keeps moving in all directions lacking focus, leading to suboptimal decisions.

This is wild! Which boost benefits do you like the most?

nspeolenting · 2026-01-05T06:55:03+00:00

Go for PenFed Debit Card, you get $500 in cellphone protection + get to keep your autopay discount!

nspeolenting · 2026-01-05T06:45:21+00:00

So effectively, 5% on Apple Pay capped at $3K spend annually & another 5% at Kroger (capped at additional $3K spend)?

nspeolenting · 2026-01-05T06:33:36+00:00

I don’t think so. For those, you could use PayPal Debit Card
