Using CompTIA towards MSCA

I have a A+ and Network+ certification.

How do I use these certificates towards my MCSA?

    yes and I recommend you transfer them BEFORE you complete all the MS exams required if you want the credential faster. I transferred my sec+ the day after I got it, and finished my MCSA 9 months later.

    It took about a week for my Security+ to transfer as I recall. So you'd best get it done the sooner the better.

    So what is the average time it takes to transfer my CompTIA to my MCSA?

    The CompTIA ask to fill out Microsoft e-mail address and text field, do I just fill out my MCP ID#?

    It took 2 days for my Sec+ to show up.

    I transferred my A+ and Network+ to my MCSA yesterday.

    It is still too early, but when should I get concerned if nothing is done?

    I would start bugging them if it takes more than 5 business days.

    But if you start bugging them it gets things done faster. :)

    That's how I got my MCP ID swiftly. As soon as I finished the test I was sending e-mails to Microsoft to get my ID.

    That was quick.

    I am placed my request to transfer my CompTIA certification last Thursday and when I checked on Monday my credits have already been transfered to my MCP transcript.

    That means one more to go for my MSCA!

    OK, i've done this 3 times so far, and nothing showing up. Supposed to go onto your MCP transcript, right? What's the trick?!?!?!

    Yes, it suppose to go on your MCP transcript. When your on the Comptia website publishing your credentials to Microsoft, make sure the Network+ and A+ are selected....and that they are being emailed to MCPHelp@microsoft.com. This has to be emailed via the comptia website.....if still no go, you may have to call up Microsoft.

    It took me 3 times as well (waiting 10 days inbetween tries).

    OK, that must be it. It must want you to frustrate yourself multiple times. Third try got it. Thanks for the guidance folks.
