Ahh, the global online enrollment system goes.
And the trusted traveler programs ttp.
With a myriad of overlapping programs, entry, sentri, ready, tsa pre, nexus,
And acronyms.
I revel in its complexity and confusion as it reminds me of why I retired.
You should get a card that will say either
Global entry or sentri at the top. I believe what you are calling your goes card.
You will need that. As it has some sort of radio frequency identification doohickey inside of it.
Your vehicle must also be registered through the trusted traveler website.
And anyone traveling with you must have a card.
You must activate your card. As I recall when you login to your account on the trusted traveler site after you get your card, then you activate it
automatically,
If you go back later, that option is gone, which means it is activated. I love government websites.
Make sure you update your drivers license information should you renew.
Or change vehicles.
Crossing the border you look into a camera, and aim your card at the rfid scanner square antenna.
If you travel by airplane, you don’t use the card for returning, it is done with facial recognition.
On the back of the card is your trusted traveler number which you can use when flying to get tsa pre. You get to keep your shoes on.
Pleas anyone feel free to correct me or add something.
