Required Identity Documentation
*As of November 2013*

If you are a citizen of the U.S. (or its outlying possessions), a U.S. national, or a U.S. lawful

permanent resident (LPR), you must provide one document from List A or two documents from

List B. If you present two documents from List B, at least one of them must be a government-

issued photo ID, such as a state-issued driver’s license, military ID card, or state identification
card. One of the documents you provide must demonstrate that you are a citizen, national or
lawful permanent resident of the U.S. LPR documents are included in List A.

If you are presenting more than one identity document, the name and date of birth on both

documents must match. If your name has legally changed and you are unable to provide two

documents with matching names, you must provide a third court-ordered name change

document that shows the linkage between the names. (For example, you may have a birth

certificate with your maiden name and a driver’s license with your married name. In this

Please select a FAQ section below.
General Information
TSA Pre™ Application Program Enrollment

General Information
Where are Universal Enrollment Services (UES) enrollment centers located?
Locate an Enrollment Center.
What is pre-enrollment and why should I pre-enroll?
Some TSA programs allow you to begin the enrollment/application process by entering
biographic information online before visiting an enrollment center to complete the
application process. This is commonly referred to as pre-enrollment. You are not required
to pre-enroll in order to complete the application process; however, TSA encourages you to
pre-enroll to facilitate the application process:
• By pre-enrolling, you can ensure that your personal data is entered correctly from
the comfort of your home, office or other location.
• You may be able to minimize your time at an enrollment center.
• You can make an appointment time at an enrollment center, convenient to your
home or traveling circumstances. Please note, an appointment is not required to visit
an enrollment center and is provided to assist you with scheduling and trying to
minimize wait times at an enrollment center.
• You can review the process and eligibility document(s) required at your leisure.
• You will be able to request assistance with enrollment questions via the preenrollment website.
Please note, the total time combined for pre-enrolling and time for enrolling in-person may
add up to be longer than if the individual went directly to an enrollment center without preenrolling first and/or making an appointment depending on the wait time.
How do I update information entered during pre-enrollment?
You can add or change information entered during pre-enrollment during the in-person
enrollment process, where you will review your application for accuracy and completeness
and submit your fingerprints.
How long does in-person enrollment take?
Page 24 of 31

PRA ICR -TSA Pre✓™ Application Program Web -PreEnrollment - 2013-11-22 screenshots

An average in-person enrollment will take approximately 9-12 minutes. This does not
include potential wait time at the enrollment site prior to being serviced or travel time to get
to the enrollment center. In-person enrollment may take less time if you have pre-enrolled
with your biographic information online before visiting the enrollment center to complete the
application. You should factor possible wait time when planning a visit to the enrollment site
or make an appointment by calling the UES Call Center at 855-DHS-UES1 (855-347-8371)
Monday through Friday from 8 AM-10 PM (Eastern). The in-person enrollment time shown
above does not include the time it may take to pre-enroll or to make an appointment.
How are fingerprints collected during the in-person enrollment process?
Fingerprints are electronically captured at the enrollment center during in-person
enrollment.
What happens if I cannot provide fingerprints or be fingerprinted?
For the in-person fingerprint collection, TSA has procedures to accommodate individuals
who are partial or full amputees or who may be unable to provide ten-finger fingerprints.
TSA’s fingerprint collection procedures conform with FBI criminal history records check
request requirements, which include standards and guidance for submitting requests for
individuals with amputations and other circumstances that prevent a ten-finger biometric
submission.
How do I know my personal information is safeguarded?
Privacy and the security of your personal information are critical to TSA and to those
participating in TSA enrollment programs. To ensure your privacy is protected, your data is
encrypted, stored, and transmitted securely using methods that protect the information from
unauthorized retrieval or use.
Who collects the information?
TSA’s contracted Universal Enrollment Services provider, MorphoTrust USA, manages the
online web pre-enrollment application and the enrollment centers that collect biographic and
biometric information for programs including TSA’s Pre™ Application Program, Hazardous
Materials Endorsement (HME), Threat Assessment Program (HTAP), and the
Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC) program. Many enrollment centers
may be listed as “IdentoGO by MorphoTrust” enrollment centers. These IdentoGO centers
are part of MorphoTrust USA and are authorized as TSA’s Universal Enrollment Services
providers.
Where does the information collected go?
The information collected by TSA’s contractor is provided to TSA and used only for the
purposes of conducting TSA’s security threat assessment to determine eligibility for TSA
application/enrollment programs.
TSA may share information outside of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in
accordance with the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a. Principal disclosures include disclosure to:
• The FBI to retrieve your criminal history record;

•
•

TSA contractors or other agents who are providing services relating to the security
threat assessments; and
Appropriate governmental agencies for law enforcement, or security purposes, or in
the interests of national security.

For additional information regarding disclosures, please see the system of records notice for
the relevant enrollment program. For example, for the TSA Pre™ Application Program,
please see DHS/TSA-021, TSA Pre™ Application Program System of Records.
How can I make an appointment for an in-person enrollment?
You may make an appointment online via this website or by contacting the UES Call Center
at 855-DHS-UES1 (855-347-8371) Monday through Friday from 8 AM-10 PM (Eastern). If
pre-enrollment is available for the program to which you are applying, you may make an
appointment online during the pre-enrollment process.
After enrolling, how can I check the status of my application?
Check Status at the Universal Enrollment Services (UES) website or by contacting the UES
Call Center at 855-DHS-UES1 (855-347-8371) Monday through Friday from 8 AM-10 PM
(Eastern). Please note, when checking your status online, you will be required to enter the
same contact information (phone or email) provided during enrollment.

don't match?
Yes, name on the documents you provide for identity verification and proof of citizenship
needs to match. If the name on the identity document or proof of citizenship does not match
the name on the enrollment application, supporting documentation will be required. For
example, an individual may have a birth certificate (proof of citizenship) with their maiden

should bring a document (such as a marriage certificate) which shows the linkage between
the citizenship document and any other documents that you may present.

making travel reservations.

TSA Pre✓™ Application Program
Coming Fall 2013

Share on emailShare on facebookShare on twitterShare on linkedinShare on diggShare on

deliciousShare on redditShare on stumbleuponShare on google_plusone_share
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is announcing plans to implement a TSA Pre✓
™ Application Program. The TSA Pre✓™ fee-based application process will allow U.S. Citizens

and Lawful Permanent Residents the opportunity to apply for expedited screening at U.S.
airports.

The first two enrollment locations will open in the fall of 2013, at Indianapolis International
Airport (IND) and in the Washington, D.C. metro area. TSA plans to expand to additional
enrollment sites nationwide in the coming months.

How to Apply

There are two ways to apply:
1) Visit an enrollment center directly to complete all steps of the application process at

once, including providing the biographic application information, fingerprints, payment,
and valid required identity and citizenship/immigration documentation.

2) Pre-enroll online, make an appointment and then visit an enrollment center to provide
fingerprints, payment, and valid required identity and citizenship/immigration

documentation.

Click here for a list of required identity and proof of citizenship/immigration documents.
ALL TSA Pre™ Application Program applicants MUST visit an authorized TSA Pre™ Application
Program enrollment center in-person to verify their identity and provide fingerprints.

For the in-person fingerprint collection, TSA has procedures to accommodate individuals who

are partial or full amputees or who may be unable to provide ten-finger fingerprints. TSA’s
fingerprint collection procedures conform with FBI criminal history records check request

requirements, which include standards and guidance for submitting requests for individuals
with amputations and other circumstances that prevent a ten-finger biometric submission.
Applicants may either walk-in to an enrollment center or schedule an appointment.

PRA ICR -TSA Pre✓™ Application Program Web -PreEnrollment - 2013-11-22 screenshots

Online pre-enrollment before visiting an enrollment center is not required, but TSA encourages
online pre-enrollment to expedite the application process at the enrollment center.
A U.S. passport is not required to enroll; however, valid identity and proof of
citizenship/immigration eligibility documentation is required.

How it Works

Applicants must pay the $85 non-refundable enrollment fee at an enrollment center.

Enrollment in the TSA Pre™ Application Program is valid for 5 years, after which members will
need to re-apply. TSA estimates applicants should receive a response from TSA in

approximately 2-3 weeks after enrollment is completed in-person at the enrollment center.

Applicants receive a notification letter via U.S. mail when TSA completes the security threat

assessment review of the TSA Pre™ application. Approved applicants are issued a ‘Known

Traveler Number’ (KTN) to be used either by entering their KTNs in the ‘Known Traveler Field’

when booking their travel reservations, or entering their KTNs to their frequent flyer airline

profiles, where it will be stored for future reservations. Current TSA Pre✓™ participants,

including those eligible via a CBP Trusted Traveler Program such as Global Entry, do NOT need

to apply again via the TSA Pre™ Application Program. Existing and future CBP Trusted Traveler
Program members will continue to receive TSA Pre✓™ eligibility.
What are the eligibility requirements for TSA Pre✓™?
An individual must be a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident and cannot have been
convicted of certain crimes.

documents.

•

Click here for the TSA Pre✓™ eligibility requirements.

What if I do not meet the eligibility requirements?
If you are deemed initially ineligible, you will be sent a letter explaining the reason for
ineligibility and instructions on how to request a correction of record. You should request a
correction of record if you think the reason for ineligibility is inaccurate, was based on incorrect
court records, or incorrect information provided at enrollment.
•

For immigration-related ineligibility, you may need to only provide additional citizenship or
eligible immigration related documentation.

•

For criminal history-related ineligibility, you may need to provide court records information
or other associated information to resolve a potential inaccuracy.
