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!!

Yay! Finally got the email today! I originally got an email last night asking for more info, and thought ‘oh no please not another long wait now’ after I supplied the additional detail but must give credit and thanks where it’s due. 14 hours later I’m all accredited! Thank you ISC for that turnaround. Just gotta pay the AMF now, getting the SSO issue when I try and pay but I’ve already seen threads to email Amanda so have done that already.

Welcome to the club @Rossva!

I guess that's actually two clubs: the CISSP club and the AMF issues club

Thats impressive.  Im a CISSP that took the CCSP exam almost 5 weeks ago and I'm still waiting.  No verification will be needed, since I'm already a CISSP and have been for over a decade.  You would think they could process these types of applications much more quickly.

The last report I saw from someone a day or two ago was their endorsement took 5 weeks and 3 days. Shame it's going back up again, but at least it's within the stated 4 - 6 weeks.

EDIT:

Oh, apparently that is to do with ANSI requirements.
