Nexus Application

[Faceplant]

I just applied for mine. I'd like to do wife , I mean I'd like to complete her application too, along with kid. Once this is all done, is it easy to have interview for whole family at once?

I too would like to do my wife but after 21 years of marriage I resort to begging

... Kid is free. Scheduling family appointments is very common and easy. You'll need register separate "GOES" accounts for each member of your family.

We just got the families Nexus cards. It's better to apply for theirs at the same time you get yours as the process is the same no matter what. Once you've filled in your applications, a separate one for each family member, you can reschedule your appointments so they are back to back. Like 3:00, 3:15, 3:30.... at the place you choose. Then all go there together. You will need to go to their interview anyways even if it's at a later date as both parents must be present at a child's interview. If you go to the airport you can get the retina scan done as well. My kids loved that.

So far the process has been quite easy. Applied for the 3 of us to get Nexus. Approximately 11 days went by until I could select interview date. We selected the 3 of us in a row for next Wednesday in Blaine. The airport, or the address on main street Vancouver was a 4 week wait.
According to what I've read, after the interview we can expect to receive cards in 10 days or so?? That would be cool.

I thought kids didn't have to give biometrics?

Holy cow that's fast. I took me over 2 months. Still need to get Nexus for my wife and daughter so this is very encouraging

Yeah, you guys have lucked out on the timing thing, I'm facing a four month wait for my RENEWAL meeting! And that's in Blaine as well, Vancouver was even longer, booked up through June

Hey Chuck - periodically try re-scheduling your appointment for an earlier date. I shaved off 3 weeks that way.

That's a good idea, I'd have been on top of it more, but with the lousy dollar (78 cents, ouch!) and crappy Locust conditions the past few months (only a handful of days...what does your session count say for Locust?) it hasn't been a huge priority. Regardless, my interview is next week

Locust has been good to me. 6 sessions in 2015. Maybe another one Sunday
