Early May paper app here, for our August trip. Credit card not charged yet. Any number to call, or just apply again, on-line this time?

Applied on May 8th and got conditionally approved today. Looks like 32 business days. Applied through online. Looking forward to have the interview this weekend.

Just wait. As you have found out, paper application saves a few dollars, but wait time is longer. If you are in a hurry, online application is more suitable.

Thanks. Lesson learned.

I've already completed [most] of the application online, and it seems to accept birth certificate (which obviously doesn't have a photo) as both a citizenship and entry document. Her passport is processing, and will probably arrive early July, so if we want to add that to the application, we'd need to wait until then to actually submit it. Anyone know if there is a disadvantage to simply applying with a birth certificate, and then just providing the passport at the interview? Could this make the processing time longer? Or is it best to wait to be able to provide it in the application?Appreciate any insight into this.

1. The applications are queued, so I wouldn't expect an infant to process faster.
2. Submit with a birth certificate and add the passport at the interview. There is no disadvantage to waiting.

Applied 5/27
3 other family members applied 5/28 One approved 6/27 and waiting on the rest of us to be approved.
Luckily we can schedule interviews the same day or next day right now, Hoping for the rest of the approvals shortly.

Same thing we were asking as I was a day before and 2 of the 3 on 5/28 were kids. One of the kids was approved.

CBSA has updated the website to reflect processing time of 32 business days as of 2018-06-26. Wiki updated.

Fyi - I applied on May 21st for my wife and I and we just got approved.
I do have a question for scheduling the interview as I would like my wife and I to be interviewed at the same time.
Should I book 2 side by side appointments or 2 consecutive ones.
Thanks

Side by side if possible, eg both at 215pm. If that's not possible, and if one can get at 215 and other at 400pm, then both go in at 215 and inform them you are together. They'll do the second part (explaining the benefits and responsibilities of NEXUS) together.
