My husband also applied on 7/14/19 but is still awaiting conditional approval. He has had the same government adjacent job for the past 14 years and has one additional residence than myself. We have the same travel experiences during the relevant time period.

I was able to schedule my interview at my second-preferred location for September 11th (it'll be a 5 hour drive for us instead of the optimal 2 hour). We leave the country next in early October and hope to have approvals by then. Plan to watch for last-minute interview openings.
