This was my timeline (Canadian Citizen):
Applied April 7th, 2022
Conditionally Approved April 25th, 2022
Interview May 26th, 2022
Approved June 6th, 2022
All in all, not too long of a process and better than I expected.

I called my local Nexus processing center and was told that the website is no longer being updated and that current wait time for conditional approval is estimated at 413 days. It sounded like that might that might just be for US citizens, but it wasn't entirely clear. I don't know how some people are getting conditional approval so quickly, but I've also been waiting for over 10 months.

Remote Interview Pilot for Trusted Traveler Programs
Eligibility
Some renewing Global Entry members who are conditionally approved are eligible to participate in the pilot. Renewing NEXUS, FAST and SENTRI members will be integrated into the pilot over the next several weeks through a phased approach. First-time TTP applicants are not yet eligible to participate. Due to the temporary restrictions on non-essential travel at U.S. land borders, NEXUS and FAST-North interviews at U.S. and Canadian enrollment centers remain suspended until further notice.Criteria
To be eligible for the remote interview pilot, TTP members must:- Be conditionally approved for a TTP renewal;
- Be at least 18 years of age;
- Have a photo on file with CBP that was taken (1) within the past 10 years, and (2) after the applicant was 14 years of age; and
- Have previously submitted fingerprints to CBP.
Scheduling a Remote Interview
To schedule a remote interview, eligible applicants may log into their TTP dashboard and select the “Scheduling Your Remote Interview” link. CBP recommends that applicants verify their e-mail address of record by using the “Edit Profile” link prior to scheduling a remote interview. Doing so will ensure that the applicant receives appointment details and reminders.For indexing and future search purposes, please continue the discussion of remote interviews in the referenced thread.

Not just you - I'm a GE member and have been waiting for conditional approval since August 2021. In fact - I've even become a Canadian Citizen since applying for Nexus so that will be fun to get updated...
