Tyler Pounds opens interview slots for TSA pre-check

Waiting in line at airport security can be a hassle. However, TSA's pre-check enrollment allows passengers to speed up the process.

TYLER, Texas — Despite the shutdown, TSA still guards America's airports, screening each passenger for safety.

One service TSA provides his pre-check enrollment that allows for speedier entry into terminals. Tyler Pounds Field will begin pre-check enrollment next week.

“Customers can come here and meet with a representative and we have an office in the back for the private interview,“ Airport Manager David Dickson said.

Passengers may sign up via a mobile enrollment clinic over the next two weeks. In the past, passengers would have to go to Dallas or Houston to sign up for pre-check.

"You set your appointment up and make sure you select this location for the convenience and then you’ll come in for a short interview, fingerprinting for your background checks and then the process is complete,“ Dickson explained.

All appointments must be set up online.

All the slots in the first week are filled. There still slots available between January 28 and February 1.
