I haven't requested the ombudsman for an initial Nexus application, only for overturning a denial, and that took 9 months from submission to any change (which was positive).
Thanks for the info. I'll look into that. I called and was just told to keep waiting. That they've been closed 2 years and it will just take time. She wouldn't even look into our app. Just said to check my status online. I do know they've been closed, but seeing others who applied long after us got me wondering.
