Hello Eric,

If you get an incomplete status call them. Do not wait for a return email. You could be waiting a long time. They will tell you what is wrong and how to fix it on the phone. Call the Certification Coordinator at 847-660-5660. Good Luck!

Hi Happy, I got confirmation today that my CISA is now for final processing. Hopefully I will get the certification soon. Thanks for the advice. Anyone got CISA certified as of today?

csicilia

Congratulations to all CISM certified, it seems that this is not CISA week. My application continue as "Complete-Under Review" since August 25th.

Same here. And still no answer to the mail i sent on 1st of September.

eric_gokongwei

I just called ISACA and they informed me that I will be certified already. My verification has just been completed and I will be receiving an email from them in the next weeks. They also say that they are certifying hundreds of people in a week that's why were facing this delays.

BTW how may people passed exams in June 2015?

My CISA application has been "Complete-Under review" since Aug 27th, I sent the application on July 17th… more than 8 weeks passed, including a mistake in the application to be corrected on my side.

I feel it close, but it is getting long time…

hinchion

I received a confirmation from ISACA on 21st July. Application status changed to "complete-under review" just a couple of weeks back. In just another 2 days, the 8 week processing time they have given themselves will be up. Sigh.

Just out of curiosity, did you have to make any correction to your application or it went through without needing any correction or further information?

In my case the 8 weeks have already passed but I had to resend some pages of my application due to my mistake.

It went straight through (painfully slow) without the need for correction i.e. resubmission, or further information.

They also did not reply my email enquiry on my CISA application status (as expected) but when I tried calling them (twice), the line got redirected to a voice mail.

eric_gokongwei

I have a feeling that they will start emailing out the certification status anytime this morning. Good night to all,

Hopefully. As the saying goes, "no news is good news".

No news yet from ISACA

Its more than 5 weeks after submitting CISA Application, still unreviewed . Any guess how long ISACA takes to view application.

osfp

Same here.. There is still no progress, although i have submitted my application on the first week of August. I remember that previous year i just waited only 3 weeks to get certified in CISM.

jtoast

I submitted my CISA application on July 31st which is almost 7 weeks. Still unreviewed. May call them today to check on it if I can find a phone number.

EDIT:

Woohoo!!

Called and asked them to check on it. Person put me on hold for a few minutes and then said "Oh yea, you're done. You should be fully certified this week." I then said "Excellent, I was concerned because the website was still showing unreviewed." She then said "Nope, I just pulled you and approved you."

I hung up, checked the site again and my status is now "Complete - under review."

Today is a good day.

hinchion

It has been more than 8 weeks and so I attempted another call.

According to ISACA coordinator I spoke to, I should be certified by the end of the week "provided..." that I "don't get pulled for an audit". We both laughed awkwardly albeit in a false manner. Not knowing what else to say, I ended the call abruptly with "ok thanks bye." It's an expensive (but not rewarding) long distance call.

So, after 8 weeks of torture, I am now being put through another round of mental torture - the thought that I could potentially be "pulled for an audit". I'm not worried about providing additional evidence, I dread the whole process of waiting - possibly a couple more weeks.

saadkapadia

So how they are complying with 8 weeks Certification Process??

What is the Number I should call them........

Same here, they also told me that I'll get certified 2 weeks from the time I called. So that was Tuesday last week which means that it could be anytime next week. But yeah, it's still more than 8 weeks already.

eric_gokongwei

I just checked my status in mycertifications it has now changed from complete-unreviewed to approved. It's Friday tomorrow and based on the cism certification last month, isaca certified applicants Friday (Aug 2 the same week you receive an Approved status. Might be the day were waiting for . Good luck to all!

csicilia

My CISA applications has finally changed to approved too

Long wait till now, let's hope to be certified no later than tomorrow.

jtoast

Mine too is in "approved" status and its about damn time. After going through this process, I've decided I will most likely not be pursuing any other ISACA certifications.
