Global Entry U.S. mailing address
I am trying to figure out what is the best TTP Program to apply for my inlaws who travel frequently with us. We are US citizens, already registered withGlobal Entry, but they are Mexican Nationals with a valid tourist visa. The choices are either SENTRI or GE.
I know both share the same benefits and are basically the same regarding those (TSA Pre / access to SENTRI lanes, kiosks, etc) but I saw that GE has faster processing time and seems cheaper. Mexico is part of the country that qualify for GE.
Do they have to have a US mailing address for the GE card to be mailed to them? Or can it be sent to their Mexican address? It's important to have the GE card because we live in San Diego and having access to those SENTRI lines would be nice.
I've been trying to find the answer on the CBP website but there is nothing conclusive, so if someone had their GE cards mailed to an non-US address please let me know.
Thanks!
UPDATE: Started filling the application, at some point it requires you to enter an US contact address who can can receive mail for you. Guess that answers that :)
