they actually asked me if I had it coming back from France I was starting to dig through my travel wallet and the officer said don't worry I believe you.
So you have an expired card? I didn't know if I had to hit "replace card" also I was a little heavier then I guess ill have to accept my glamour shot.

Speaking of GE -- there are a number of appts available at the 2 DC airports for early/mid Dec. I was able to grab one, but my DH is at the gym and leaves his phone in the car and they need to send a code to his phone, lol. Hopefully there will still be slots when he's done!

(DC isn't our local airport, we're in NC, but my DS and his wife live in N Va so I guess we'll go for a quick visit and knock the appts out -- IF I can get him one!)

Not yet, mine expires next year, but I think I can renew soon.

I wasn’t planning on taking our cards on our trip next month, I guess I will.

For the Instacart/CSR $15 credit. Is there a minimum spend?

According to the CBP, you do not need to show a physical card unless you are making a land crossing.



Althought TPG has this article which mentions users has been asked to show their card in some destinations which have US Preclearance, like Canada. And some cruise ports.

Not that I am aware of. I think I've been as low as like $20.

Is a physical Global Entry card automatically sent once you're approved?

There are just too many cards I want right now - and of course they are all Chase... Just trying to figure out my next steps.

Me - 4/24 with next 2 cards dropping in April. Working on $7500 SUB for US Bank Biz - have about $3500 left. I thought it was 90 days but just looked and is 120 days. So spend needed by 1/15. My last Chase Card was opened in April.

DH - 1/24 with last Chase Card opened in August (Ink Cash) and B4 that the CIU in May.

My next step was to get the SW Performance Biz with 80,000 points - spend $5000 in 90 days. Then in a few months get another Biz or Personal Card for CP. But now wondering if I should go for one of the the increased Ink Cards for 90,000 UR with $6000 SUB (hoping referrals will show new offer soon), as the SW Card seems to always be at 80,000.

DH - Could see if he gets approved for another INK card... also looking at IHG BIz Card - those are 140,000 points with $3000 Spend. (Recently stayed at Holiday Inn Orange Lake and can use points there, so wanting to start earning there too)

I have payments coming up for my European Cruise in May, which I can pay off the cruise and hotels. I have DD Tuition in January and New Tires for my Car. So, would have about $10,500 not counting regular spend.

Oh and to top it off - I got 2 offers for RCCL on my AMEX Cards. Pay $1000 earn 25,000 MR's. (The Europe cruise is RCCL and that would pay for all but about $1000 but would take spend from any new cards I may get.

UGGHHH - I don't know what to do!! So many options!! Just trying to write it all down and figure out my best options.

If you value mrs though that's great. 25k mr for 1k in spend is equivalent to the 150k 6k spend plat.

initially yes renewal id imagine they use the same picture. I'm not sure.

Chase looks at your CLs with them…usually 50% of household income or around $75,000 whichever is lower

OK thank you so much!

I applied through my banker for a new CIU. I had closed a CIU this morning and she said they just 'moved' the $7,500.00 CL from the newly closed card to my new application (I'm not sure if I'm saying this correctly). Because I was e-mailed a DocuSign form I don't know if I'm approved, but she seemed to indicate that it wouldn't be an issue. Guess we shall see.

For those that have flow economy out of CDG, are there any priority pass lounges in terminal 2? We plan to get there almost 3 hours early, just to be safe, but don't would like to have access to a lounge. We are flying CDG to DFW in Y.

I have very few MR"s right now. As AMEX has not like us in a few years. This would give me 25,000 and DH 25,000... not sure if I should just stick with UR's. Only thing I might use them for is Delta flights.

If I were in your shoes I would go for the 50K MRs for only $2K.
