We like Global Entry. We get it as a perk with our United Exporer Visa Card. Glad to hear renewal is easy.

I'm glad the renewal process went well. We renewed ours a few years ago with no issue.
My sister and brother-on-law live in Rhode Island and applied for Global Entry this past May. They couldn't get an appointment in Rhode Island at all, and in Massachusetts the earliest date was in November. They have two international trips planned before then. They finally got an appointment in Calais, Maine (on the Canadian border) earlier this month. It's a six hour drive away.
The agents in Maine were friendly and fun. They have people traveling all the way from Alaska to Maine to get their Global Entry interviews!
My sister and brother-in-law's Global Entry cards were received in about two weeks. The process wasn't easy, but they're all set for our upcoming trip to SXM in early September.

Things have changed, at least in New England.

The Capital One Venture card says it will reimburse up to $100 for Global Entry or TSA PreCheck once every 3 years.
With my initial application 5 years ago, I was credited the $100 in 3 days with no action needed on my part. It has been almost 2 weeks now so I might give them a call today just to verify that I do not need to take any action to get the refund. The reimbursement for my renewal happened almost immediately, so yes; give them a call.

No, It is designed to speed up border crossings into the United States (U.S.) for low-risk, pre-approved travellers. Canada has similar systems in CANPASS and NEXUS.

Thanks for the heads up. We just renewed our global entry and didn't know Capitol one Venture offered this!

It is. It is meant to speed up your return to either Canada or the US by bypassing the lines and shortening your time to clear Customs and Immigration.

You would use it on reentry into Canada on your return trip. The whole purpose of NEXUS is to expedite your entry into Canada, from a foreign destination, and speed up clearing immigration and customs. The benefit to citizens is mostly on the return trip home.
