Nice to see some happy folks in this thread. Hoping they start processing more than 1 day of applications each calendar day in order to catch up to the former 2-3 weeks processing time. So any and all conditional approval updates are welcome.

Anybody have a timeline for post-interview processing? My interview was 16 days ago and it still says "Interview scheduled" under status on my GOES account. I was told it would be 2 weeks.

That is what I was told just few hours ago. But I asked about the email notification and that was not confirmed if its part of the process.

Note: I did receive an email notification today, 24 hrs after the interview indicating approval, now just need the card.

Applied 5/22, received conditional approval about 10 minutes ago (8/2). I checked GOES about an hour ago when I came home and it wasn't there then. Still waiting for wife's approval. Blaine, WA is wide open with appointments beginning tomorrow morning.

Look like website no longer compatible with iOS devices.

It is difficult to see as it is in a very small font superimposed on top of disclaimer text. It says "Click here to prove you are human." . I had to zoom in to find it and then if you click on it it will let you in.... in my case it is Safari on iphone 6.

I do not see the "are you human" box on my iPad running Chrome, do see on my Chromebook running Chrome.

I closed the tab and went in fresh. The box appears in the large mostly blank field now.

Applied 5/22/16 and conditionally approved today 8/3/16. Only one available appointment in Toronto towards the end of the month so I booked for labor day Monday instead.
