CISA/CISM Application Submission and when Approved?

I recently passed the CISA and submitted my application on Friday (1/16/15). I just wanted to start a thread where the Dec. '14 exam passers post when they submitted or plan to submit their application and see when people start receiving approvals.

Good Luck to everyone!

Still complete under review for me...although I did receive another "great" email from ISACA -Certifications regarding the June exam

I was so excited to see the email was from them and then so bummed that it was about the June exams.

Same here. Did they have to use the Isaca Certification email. Unamused!

Still Unreviewed...they must have one reviewer per unit! What a joke. We are all somewhat process experts right?! So validate if a candidate is worthy before they can take test. There's a concept. Sorry guys just venting

Agreed

This should be the first step. You have to be approved before you can take the test.

I submitted my CRISC application on 2/13/15, approved and certified yesterday (2/25/15).

I'm now hoping they release the certifications in a giant batch like they did with the test results. If so, today marks the 6th week from the test results.

Still no word.

I still haven't submitted my paperwork (on my list of to dos), I think I'll give it a month and wait for them to get through the bulk

No rush

When did you submit your paperwork? When did it go into under review? I just checked mine and it's still the same.

I think CISM goes before CISA

CISM Order of Slowness:

1. December 2014 Exam
2. Exam results email on 1/16/15
3. Application sent on 1/21/15
4. Confirm receipt email from a person at ISACA on 1/21/15
5. Confirm application with processing timeline on 1/22/15
6. Application - Complete: unreviewed on 2/17/15
7. Application - Complete: under-review on 2/24/15
8. Application - Approved on 2/27/15

I believe this is the timeline.
