Since it's been over 10 weeks now I called the Canadian Processing Centre for BC (866-496-3987 Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. PT), and they said it's a MINIMUM of 12 weeks during the summer. They couldn't tell me what part of the review is still ongoing, they just said our applications are under review.
Let's see how long this takes!
Update
Applied: May 31
Conditional Approval: August 12 (both)
Interview: YVR on Oct 1 (both) since that's our next trip to Vancouver (could be earlier if we were there now)
Lots of availability in August for YVR, Vancouver Main St and Blaine. We're going to make sure we're also set up for Global Entry so we can use it for international trips.
