Difficult, yes as you know Blaine is almost booked out all the time. But thanks to some folks cancelling their appointments last minute, I snagged those and got ours.

Data point
My wife applied some time in late 2019 and was conditionally approved a few weeks later. The appointments available were inconvenient so we dropped the ball... then the pandemic hit.
Fast forward to 2024:
Mar 11 - scheduled interview in Ft Erie for Mar 16
Mar 16 - split interview done, approved by the time we got home
Mar 23 - activate card button appeared
Apr 3 - received card
