    When you say you were acknowledged on March 1st do you mean they received your forms or they approved you as a full cissp

    Thanks man. That gives me some perspective on mine. Hopefully I get it before my GPEN class starts so I can use the CEUs.

    My endorser sent in my application on March 8 and ISC2 acknowledged the receipt about a half hour after it was sent. I'm in the 5th week now.

    Congrats man. Did you have to reach out to them or did it just come out of the blue?

    After not receiving an email reply, I decided to call this morning to check on the status. After a very helpful and pleasant call I was told I should be receiving something shortly. Within half hour I got the confirmation email.

    6 weeks 3 days

    I'm not sure I understand the point of getting someone to endorse you if it still takes six weeks. ISC2 is just taking advantage of the free labor without providing any kind of benefit (other than to themselves) in return. Why allow people to endorse others if they don't trust them?

    I really want to get this done as well. I think it's the not knowing what's going on that's frustrating. Nobody wants to gripe at them and be further delayed by an audit either.

    Hi guys, i finally got my cissp. Just for sharing, do note the correct way to count the number of months of experience. If you work from jan 15 to feb 15, it is counted as 1 month instead of 2 months. Unless u started on the first day of Jan, and end on the last day of feb, which you will need to state so, othewise it should be counted as 1 month.

    Cheers!

    The three months I've been working in security while waiting since I passed my exam should be considered during this lengthy review. ;)

    I've only been waiting for 5 weeks (yesterday) for ISC2, though. My endorser was very thorough. Which makes the ISC2 portion of the wait that much more agitating.

    Same. Even though I've known my endorser for almost 20 years, he still called everyone and verified everything I wrote down.

    It just seems like in this digital age that something either is or isn't. I suppose they will make no wine before it's time...

    I actually received my e-mail about an hour ago. Went and thanked my endorser. :)

    It took 5 weeks 1 day, I didn't call them. Just came here and whined a little. ;)
