Best time for work calls
If you are scheduling a call between Vancouver and Chicago, the overlap window is limited to typical business hours. When it is 9 am in Vancouver it is 11 am in Chicago — a workable window for scheduling. The latest reasonable overlap is around 3 pm in Vancouver (5 pm in Chicago). Outside this window there is effectively no good overlap for regular office hours.
Best time for family calls
Vancouver and Chicago have a comfortable window for a family call — no awkward alarms required. Vancouver is 2 hours behind Chicago, which gives you about an hour of genuine overlap when both sides are free. Aim for between 6 pm and 7 pm in Vancouver — that lands at 8 pm to 9 pm in Chicago, after the school run and before anyone's ready for bed. For a Sunday catch-up or a midweek check-in, this is the sweet spot.
