Applied 06/30 and conditionally approved 08/25 (8 weeks exactly). Appointment set for 09/01 in Blaine, but trying to get it moved to this week.
Edit: Managed to snag an appointment for 08/29 in Blaine, and received an account status change email a couple hours after the interview.

Applied by mail june 16 and approved on Aug 15. Had to phone in 2 days ago to find that out as I hadn't received a letter yet. Low and behold it shows up yesterday (from Vermont). Yay ! Lady in Niagara Falls was very helpful and said the approval letters are taking longer than usual to be mailed out.
Now just have to enter everything into GOES and pick an interview date. Sweetgrass MT. methinks.

8 weeks almost to the day: Applied on July 4, conditional approval September 3.
I'm Toronto-based, and YYZ has many open interviews spots from November onward; Fort Erie and Niagara Falls have immediate availability.
Update: A spot just opened up for tomorrow! I'll echo what everyone else suggests: keep checking the site for cancellations.

Their voice message says that it's taking actually an additional 6-8 weeks for approbation .... Which means 14 to 16 weeks !!
