MCSA 2012 Upgrade Path

I received a call yesterday from: Channel Service Representative | CSG Services | Bellevue, WA

The lady told me I was eligible for exam 70-417. Now, My understanding to be eligible for that exam you have to have:

MCSA: Windows Server 2008
MCITP: Server Administrator on Windows Server 2008
MCITP: Enterprise Administrator on Windows Server 2008
MCITP: Virtualization Administrator on Windows Server 2008 R2
MCITP: Enterprise Messaging Administrator 2010
MCITP: Lync Server Administrator 2010
MCITP: SharePoint Administrator 2010
MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Administrator on Windows 7

My certification are as follows:

MCSE1: Windows Server 2003

MCSA1: Messaging on Windows Server 2003

MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuration

MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure, Configuration

MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Infrastructure, Configuration

MCPS: Microsoft Certified Profissional

I have already taken exam 410 and passed. Has something changed on the upgrade path for 2012? Any information would be helpful.

It changed recently. Your MCSE on 2003 now counts as a prerequisite for the 70-417 exam.

Not that I do not believe you , can you link the requirement site? I can't find one that says my 2003 is a prerequisite. Thank you

I only ask because my company will pay for the exam and materials but I need to show proof
