Refunds Being Issued To New York Residents For Global Entry/Trusted Traveler Programs

On February 5th it was announced that DHS would be suspending Global Entry and other Trusted Traveler Programs in response sanctuary law. Readers have started to receive refunds marked as ‘USCUSTOMS TRUSTEDTRAVELER’. The Global Entry website states that the application fee is not refundable even if you’re not approved for the service, although in this case it’s good to see them refunding these fees. I guess it will be interesting to see how this refund is handled by credit card issuers that also offer a credit when applying for Global Entry.
