CISSP Endorsement

I sent in my endorsement paperwork this morning. For anyone that has been certified recently, how long did it take from when you turned in the paperwork until you finally received the credential?

It took 2.5 weeks to receive my endorsement after submitting. If your endorsement is returned for further information or documentation, it will take approximately an additional day to process once it is returned to ISC2.

Not bad at all. ISACA took 9 weeks for the CISA.

I am about to send in my CAP endorsement as well and expect a similar turn-around.

In February I was looking at around 3 weeks and a day or two to get the confirmation. Portal updated very shortly after this, then I got the cert some time shortly thereafter. I was able to order the Mounted certificate right after I received confirmation (because I wanted one without an expiration date).

I had my endorsement paperwork approved in exactly 2 weeks from submission. I got my "CISSP Certified" email last Friday.
Cheers.

Sounds like a pretty decent turn around. I sent my resume and form to my supervisor for his endorsement today. We did digital signatures so no printing or scanning
Hoping to get it taken care of soon!

I got my "you are officially a CISSP" email today. Friday afternoon they had sent me an email stating I needed to resend my resume since it had a reference to being a CISSP on it (I had waiting for endorsement on it) and apparently that is a big no-no. So resent it on Friday and got the email today. Nice turn around . The paperwork was originally sent in on March 26th, so I'm not complaining too badly.
Good luck. The waiting is the worst part.

Did your resume contain the name and address of your employer and your supervisor's phone number and address?
I had to revise my resume today to account for that.
Also, you get an email when your endorsement has been received, right?

I did the same thing that Breadfan did, I just had on their "Pending Endorsement" and they told me I had to remove it. I only had it on because I had to apply for a job and didn't want that part not qualifying me. I did take it off, resubmitted it, and that afternoon got the "congrats" email.
As far as the supervisor name and numbers, I put that in a 'cover letter' and sent it that way as to not clutter up the resume. I also did not do any electronic signatures as I didn't think that ISC2 would accept it and would rather have an actual signature.
