CISSP Endorsement Wait

[kevinmorrison]

Hello all!

For those waiting on your CISSP Endorsement Review approval from ISC2, the wait will continue.  It has been over 6 weeks since my endorsement was submitted and I just received the following:

"Typically, the endorsement review process runs around 4-6 weeks; however, due to a system upgrade, we are currently running closer to 8 weeks. This could be done sooner than the 8 weeks, we just ask to allow the full time for review."

So it looks like we are all in for longer wait times post endorsement. 

Happy Waiting!!

Exam Passed: 12/8/2018

Endorsement submitted: 12/9/2018

CCSP Awarded on: TBD but I'm hoping it comes soon. 

This is for the CCSP. I already have a CISSP so the endorsement part should be quick. I'm not sure why it will take 9 weeks for ISC2 to confirm that I already have a CISSP.

Congrats on passing the exam! Even though you are an ISC member already, that will not move you up in the queue or expedite the review. It is on a first-come first-serve basis from my understanding. It would be nice if current ISC certificate holders were given some type of 'fast-track' towards additional/new endorsements.

thanks! I agree and I hope ISC2 changes this process were the endorsement timeframe is shortened for people that already have the CISSP.

Thanks ISC for excellent customer service.

Well I guess it's finally my turn:
Passed exam 10/24/2018
Endorsement submitted: 11/3/2018
Email confirmation received: 1/7/2019

Badge received: 1/9/2019 (that was really fast, I was under the assumption it was 2 weeks to show up on youracclaim.)

Edited to add:  I called Member Services 1/4/2019 and was told early this week.  She was very professional on the phone and understanding of the wait times.  Good experience.

Congrats! I had a really good experience dealing with Customer Service, she was really nice, professional and aware of the situation.

Provisionally passed on 11 Dec, 13 Dec 2018 got the email to say that also.

Did endorsement on 14 Dec 2018, also got confirmation email the same time.

Coming to week 5 now, status is "endorsement received but processing has not started"

Also, my endorser that I selected has not received any emails as yet...is this normal ?

You are not alone. Provisionally passed on Dec 10. Endorsement submitted on Dec 14. Status is the same. "Endorsement received but processing has not started."

I am sure the holiday will delay. Based on other comments we just need to be patient.

I passed on the same day, DEC. 10....I also submitted my Endorsement on the same day. I have not received news of approval yet either. Could you update when you hear anything and I'll do the same.

[DevenGengan]

I will definitely do that, thank you

[STappmeyer]

Yes I will share when my status changes.  I just checked and it has not been started.  (7 weeks and 1 day).

[DevenGengan]

Same status is shown for me, importantly...my endorser did not get any
requests to endorse me
