Hi all,
I have Global Entry on my UK passport. Became a US permanent resident and got my GC in March. Went on a short international holiday & came back through Boston earlier this month. Asked the staff member next to the GE line if I could use it with a new GC, when it was tied to my UK passport. He, as I suspected, said no, so I lined up in the (long!) citizen/resident line. When it was my turn I asked the agent to tie my GE to my GC and he was confused and said I could have just gone through the GE line -- I tried to explain about it possibly recording a wrong entry type etc but he was insistent that I could just use GE - "if you have GE, you have it" was his direct quote.
Was he correct? I'm reading that you scan your GC at the GE kiosk, so I feel like he was incorrect but I didn't know the right terminology/argument at the time to get him to do it. Or have things changed? Can I just use the GE line next time and get them to sort it out?
Thanks!
