depend on what your going for... bitterness, flavor, or aroma. longer (hour or so) for bittering. 30 or so for flavoring. 15 or so for aroma. at least that's the general times for a regular boil... I'm only guessing it would work the same way for just making a hop tea.
I have never done a no boil recipe so I cant give you much advice but I would do the recipe as per instructions let it ferment and dry hop with the cascade about a week before bottling with the cascade you cant go wrong with dry hopping cascade in an IPA.
