How long until you get notice MS for passing?

I passed my MCP 70-290 on the weekend, and my Prometric profile is updated saying I passed, however I have not received any kind of email, etc..

Is there a way to check things from the Microsoft end? Or is that only when I get a MCSA/E?

Not sure about prometric (I used Vue) but you should be able to take your MCP # off your score sheet and the "Vendor Number" usually the number representing your testing facility, and a passport enabled email address and login to your MCP profile. Your tests passed, certifications (MCP), and the link to request your "Welcome Kit" (includes your cert, a pin and some legal stuff) should all be in there. I don't have the exact address, but just google "MCP member site". If you don't login and request your welcome kit you won't receive your physical certificate.

Yup. You must request the kit before they send it out.

I always thought that was stupid, far as I remember during the whole testing progress they never metion you have to request it. One of the teachers at my old job told me about, otherwise I wouldnt have known. Or maybe its in one of those long agreements you click right thru before the exam, haha.

Speaking of that, my heart was pounding when I clicked End Now, and I had to click through 50 agreements before seeing my dam score! Dam you Microsoft!!
