So I did the application and paid the fee. Now every location in the Houston area says no available appointments for interviews, expect the one at terminal e that requires a boarding pass to get into the airport. Do I just need to check every day to see if something pops up? Or did I just throw money away because I’m never going to be able to get a interview?

You can show up for the interview any time.

Was in the same boat in Houston. Drove to San Antonio and got it done the same week my background check came back.

When you go through immigration at IAH when returning from abroad, they have a counter you can go to and be interviewed for global entry. There was no wait. No appointment needed. They ask you a few questions, and you're good to go. Piece of cake. That's what we did a few years ago.

I applied/paid fee and went and did the interview. I've been told a lot of people don't show up for their interview which is why walk ins are acceptable but, when I went, there was a line for interviews. When I applied, I had to schedule the interview two months out (after application approval) because all the interview slots were full.

Keep checking daily, even multiple times a day. I had to do that for my renewal. I think some will accept walk-ins but you won't be guaranteed to get in, so maybe call ahead to confirm. These days doing it on arrival from an international destination seems to be the easiest way to get it done.

You don’t need a boarding pass for IAH. I was surprised how easy it was. Short term parking. In and out under 15 minutes

Anyone know if you can do a walk in interview at DFW or Love Field with no appt? I paid the $100 but still can't get an appt online in the Dallas area.
