The program is open to U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals and lawful permanent residents as a great option for travelers looking to save time during the security screening process. It allows access to dedicated screening lanes at 200+ participating U.S. airports nationwide. IDEMIA offers TSA PreCheck for $76.75, which covers five years of benefits, if approved.
