US Global Entry Program for Australian citizens [from 2025]

Sorry my last response confusing on one point - your boarding pass for the onward US flight would need to have “TSA PreCheck” printed on it. iAlso just because you have GE doesn’t mean you will always get TSA Precheck on your boarding pass - sometimes the system will randomly withhold it. It is rare but can happen - think of it like a spot audit. A bit like the dreaded “SSSS”
Your boarding pass for a U.S. flight must have **"TSA PreCheck"** printed on it to access the expedited security lane. Even if you have **Global Entry (GE)**, which includes TSA PreCheck benefits, the system may occasionally withhold PreCheck from your boarding pass as part of a random spot audit or system glitch. This is rare but can happen, similar to being selected for the **"SSSS"** (Secondary Security Screening Selection) on your boarding pass, which requires additional screening. Always double-check your boarding pass to ensure PreCheck is listed before heading to the airport. It's all very complicated. I have always had SSSS and am in the same league as Tulsi Gabbard. (at least)
