Thank you TWA884. I just got email notification about your reply so I logged back into my TTP account and now I see "Activate Card" button. Tentatively any idea on when can I expect to receive my card in mail?

I had my interview on 5/21 in Los Angeles but my status on the TTP Dashboard has not changed from Conditionally Approved. It hasn't even updated to check off the box that I had the interview and am now waiting for approval? Anyone else had this happen to them?

Mine took about 8 weeks...can't recall exactly because it was a while ago.

Kinda funny that you quoted that - I asked it 9 years ago and will have my third NEXUS card next year ;-)

That's pretty quick turn around on the conditional approval.

I managed to get catch a 2:15pm cancellation slot today in blaine. I left home at 11:15am, waited an hour at the border and got there at 1:00pm, the lady was nice to take my papers despite being super early. I still have to wait for a little bit to for next available officers, but able to get everything done (including iris scan) by 1:40pm.

However, I still have to go back (luckily no appointment needed) to enrollment office to add my citizenship certificate. I didn't know its a requirement (as I didn't even enter the number in my application).

I applied online on Mar 27 and Status is still under "pending review".
I've been living in Canada almost 9 years, PR, clean record.
Processing time is way longer than I thought.

Family Application: May 18, 2019
Husband and daughter approve on May 23, 2019
Me: still waiting

Not sure why it is taking a longer for my application to be processed. We have almost identical travel records. I did go to UAE for meeting a few years ago, not sure if that makes a difference.

Hmm Same situation:
Mom applied and got approved in 3 days.
Dad: Still pending: Applied on Apr 9

Brother and Niece: Approved in 3 days.
Sis in Law still pending Applied Apr 8th

Wife applied for renewal Apr 8 and still pending.

It just seems that wither you get express approval or you go in a long queue.

It is perhaps very likely that visits to UAE or other muslim countries go into the long queue.

It is just as likely that application processing queue time is simply random.
