CLEAR Support & FAQs

Yes! Regardless of your original enrollment provider, most people can renew their TSA PreCheck® membership online through CLEAR. Simply select ‘Renew’ on the plan selection page. You will need to enter your biographic data or your KTN from your current membership to begin the renewal process online at tsaprecheckbyclear.tsa.dhs.gov. Please note that if you submit multiple TSA PreCheck® renewal applications, it could cause a significant delay in processing your application. Refunds will not be disbursed when multiple applications have been submitted.

Your TSA PreCheck® KTN is valid for 5 years. If your TSA PreCheck® membership is approaching expiration, you can renew here.

There may still be instances where Members will be required to show their ID to the TSA—such as Randomization or if there is a name mismatch.

You may begin the renewal process up to 6 months prior to expiration. Applicants will not lose any time for renewing early.

As long as you are upgraded to NextGen Identity+, you are able to use our EnVe Pods!

You will not be able to access the TSA PreCheck® lane directly after enrollment. You will need to wait until you are approved and receive your Known Traveler Number (KTN) before you can use the TSA PreCheck® lanes at airports nationwide. Most TSA PreCheck® applicants receive their KTN in 3-5 days, though some applications can take up to 60 days. TSA PreCheck® applicants will receive notice of their approval status and KTN by your preferred method of communications, email or phone. You can also check your status on our website at tsaprecheckbyclear.tsa.dhs.gov or contact customer support by phone (1-888-831-9070) 8am – 10pm ET, weekdays or email (CLEARCustomerSupport@tsa.dhs.gov) anytime. Be sure to add your KTN to your airline reservations in order to receive the TSA PreCheck® indicator on your boarding pass when traveling.
