Submitted my app Wednesday morning, still waiting.
Just submitted it today. Local society is the Washington DC one. Guess it’ll probably take forever.
Submitted my application on Wednesday afternoon & still under work experience review 
It took exactly 1 week in my case to have the charter granted, but I have submitted relevant job experience. Maybe it gave me an advantage.
After the work experience had been approved, I just activated my membership and now I am a charterholder. 
submitted mine the day results came out and it’s still with the local society. Could be three more weeks. Fortunately not a huge deal in my case.
Congrats!!
Submitted the application on Monday. Approved on Friday!!!
4 days after my original post and I’m still waiting…But we’re all very used to that by now.
Thanks!!!
Any updates yet? I havve submitted mine on Thursday. I am still on Work experience Review with CFAI.
Submitted 1 week ago and still waiting enjoying (post-CFA) life
But I still want to update my LinkedIn page with these letters, “CFA”, because these letters have been taunted me for years.
Nobody cares about that on LinkedIn.
I don’t really care what people care about. I just worked for it, I just want it there since I earned as you had earned yours.
That’s correct attitude.
Nope. Nothing yet. I heard the CFAI one comes down pretty quick and the society one can take forever.
My Society approved in 1 day.
I applied late afternoon EST on Monday 3rd, got acceptance email on Sunday 9th September.
Imagine my shock! Didn’t expect the good folks at CFAI to be working on a Sunday and thought it was a quick turnaround given this is likely the peak time for applications.
It is possible that I benefited from the fact that I had over ten years relevant experience.
I completed all the document but still waiting for my professional reference to do his part. God this waiting is painful.
