Got my conditional approval last week for a mid-May paper application, was planning on driving to Fort Erie for my interview but somehow managed to get an appointment for next Sunday at Pearson. :eek:
Earliest full-day availability for Pearson is about one month from now, September 13th or so. |
Success.

Hallelujah! Conditional approval received today, and I got an appointment for this Thursday!
12 weeks! Now I'm just waiting for my card. |
Thanks to all for your updates, very interesting that May applications still represent the majority of this week's approvals.

Applied: June 4th, 2016
Conditional Approval: August 11th, 2016 Interview: August 27th, 2016 (Interview - Detroit, Iris Scan - next time I fly through YYC for work) |
Applied May 31 and still waiting...
Applied online on 31 May with 2 first time applications. We're both Canadian citizens living in Europe so we used our parents address for the online application on advice from CPB Info Centre (via GOES Support). Since it's been over 10 weeks now I called the Canadian Processing Centre for BC (866-496-3987 Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. PT), and they said it's a MINIMUM of 12 weeks during the summer. They couldn't tell me what part of the review is still ongoing, they just said our applications are under review.
Let's see how long this takes! |

Let me get this straight. You live in Europe but provided current address in Canada. I was told that if I declare no food at the crossing but have a mint on me, they can take away the card and fine me hundreds. I assume you have Canadian DL to show your residency? Well, its good to know that non residents can get the card. I may be in a similar situation in a few years so that I will be able to keep the card.
https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/nationa...xus-applicants By amending the three-year residency requirement, the CBSA is extending NEXUS membership eligibility to citizens of Canada currently residing abroad, or who have recently returned to Canada. The United States amended this requirement in 2009. |

You know that you don't need to be a Canadian resident to apply for Nexus right?
https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/nationa...xus-applicants Just do not understand why one needs to provide Canadian address as current (correspondence address I understand the need) where in fact it is not. |
Applied: June 4th, 2016
Conditional Approval: August 11th, 2016 Interview: August 20. There were other appointments at Whirlpool, but I had to wait until my wife had her conditional (wanted to make single trip). Turned out she got full approval (previous Nexus) about 4 days after my conditional, no re-interview. |
Initial Application, US citizen.
Applied: May 30th, 2016 Conditional Approval: August 12th, 2016 Interview: August 13th, 2016 (Blaine) The first available appointments: Seattle Urban Enrollment Center 2017-01-17 Blaine NEXUS and FAST Enrollment Center 2016-08-13 Vancouver Enrollment Center 2016-08-17 Vancouver Urban Enrollment Center 2016-08-30 |
Is everyone getting an email from GOES telling them to check their account for an update or do you check the site daily until your status changes?

Let's see how long this takes! Applied: May 31 Conditional Approval: August 12 (both) Interview: YVR on Oct 1 (both) since that's our next trip to Vancouver (could be earlier if we were there now) Lots of availability in August for YVR, Vancouver Main St and Blaine. We're going to make sure we're also set up for Global Entry so we can use it for international trips. |
Woah. I applied a few weeks ago and have some Canadian trips scheduled end of this month. By the sound of it, I probably won't get my approval in time for the trips.

Just registered here to post this:
Applied May 31, wife applied June 1 Conditional Approval: August 12 (for both) Interview: to be determined. YUL seems full until August 31, but I will recheck soon. |
