2019 is “ages” ago for that stuff. That’s the time I went through with it and it wasn’t any faster. I think they got it working as they envisioned it now. They got the face recognition right and at lightning speed relayed to the agent with all the person’s details.

Now, they can grant you entry without any of that. I got in from Canada in Sept 2919 with my driver’s license at the customs point into NY from Montreal because iI had misplaced my passport wallet with everything in it at the hotel. They ran my license through and said no problem.

They KNOW who we are in the USA. Passports unnecessary for reentry. They’re only good for going to other countries. They’re just not telling us “what/how much” they know.

Well, that was 2019, so not too far back, I remember the machine, remember it scanning my face, not sure if I had to lay my had on the fingerprint sensor... Only that the line was pretty long to get there, then we had to go find, take our luggage from the International side over to the domestic side, rather a PITA hen you're already tired of the whole process.. We'd been gone 3 weeks or so, just wanted to get back to SFO, climb on the Airporter!

Other times, coming back from Mexico, it was as expected, less crowded, nearly a walkthrough, once past the checkin at Puerto Vallarta...

Last Passport update we didn't bother with the GOES... Will see how that works, maybe.. Most likely back to PV...
