I’m a Canadian on an F1 visa who just started at McKinsey in the US. Which ‘trusted traveler’ program should I go for (and am eligible for), e.g. TSA Pre Check, Clear?

Nexus.

I have Clear and Global Entry (so pre-check by default) I legit get through security in under 5 mins. every time.

Clear with GE or Nexus is pretty much a shortcut to the front of the precheck line. Though they aren’t in many airports so depends on your flying patterns.

Have Nexus.

I think the confusion that is cropping up in this thread is that many folks are not familiar with Nexus because they aren’t Canadian so pursue TSA pre and global entry differently.

I’m an American who chose to get Nexus. Just renewed it a few weeks ago. It’s a better solution than Global Entry but in the first application instance, requires going to a border post for interview vs. a local GE office in say Oklahoma City. But once you do it, confers more benefits than GE or Precheck for a lower fee. No brainer.
