TSA PreCheck is a great way to speed up the security process when traveling. It allows you to go through security without having to remove your shoes, laptops, liquids, and belts. However, the status does expire after five years and must be renewed in order to continue enjoying the benefits. Here are some quick tips for renewing your TSA PreCheck status.
Apply Early
The best way to ensure that your renewal is processed in time is to apply early. The TSA recommends applying at least three months before your current status expires. This will give you plenty of time for the application process and any potential delays or issues that may arise.
Gather Necessary Documents
Before submitting your application, make sure you have all of the necessary documents. This includes a valid passport or driver’s license, proof of residency, and payment information. You will also need to provide fingerprints as part of the application process.
Complete the Application
Once you have all of the necessary documents, you can complete the application online or in person at an enrollment center. The online application takes about 10 minutes to complete and requires payment of an $85 fee. If you choose to apply in person, you will need to make an appointment and bring all of your documents with you.
Renewing your TSA PreCheck status is a straightforward process that can save you time and hassle when traveling through security checkpoints. By following these tips and applying early, you can ensure that your renewal is processed quickly and that you can continue enjoying the benefits of TSA PreCheck for another five years.
