Well got my enrollment number today!! woo-hoo! I was expecting to get it in April, when it would be exactly 6 months from my application, so this was a pleasant surprise.
congrats! They probably met this week rather than last week.
Just broke down and emailed asking about my application. Feels like my timeline is longer than most, and I know itās because of my former boss sitting on his hands forever. So frustrated.

that sounds aggravating. Iāve been at my current job for a long time at this point, so my prior actuarial job wasnāt needed in order to have to rely on any of those people. Iām not sure Iād even know how to get in touch with them at this point, so itās good that it wasnāt needed.
I think my current boss was great and submitted it immediately.
Honestly, this forum has been helpful. Really flailing without AO & its massive trove of historical experience/wisdom. Iāve got one exam left on my way to FSA (yay for the extension!) and I feel so bad for all the students coming up without AO as a resource for FAP and prelim exams/general actuary stuff.
yeah, I liked looking back at the history of that thread on the ao, and all the rest of the history. sucks that DW Simpson destroyed it.
the ao was key to me passing FAP in 2017-2018, but with FAP having changed in 2019 entirely, Iām not sure the history is as valuable for people now, other than the short amount after the change.
Just got a reply; they met yesterday and no decision was made. Next meeting is the last one before my 6 months is up. Still optimistic, somehow.
bummer, but youāll probably get it next month.
Just curious isnāt the Joint Board supposed to send an actual Certificate when we get the license? All the actuaries at my job had it framed and in their office. Iām assuming itās because of Covid delaying everything.
I did not get it either unless it is sitting in my office inbox or something, but I assume it is delayed until the joint board is back in an office. I never bothered framing my asa and maaa certificates. Maybe Iāll get on that if we are ever back in the office. Most, but not all of my coworkers also frame it.
@apban486 I just got a letter via snail mail telling me that the enrollment certificate will be delayed until further notice. It also included the letter I had gotten via email with my EA#. itās fine. I donāt really need the ea certificate to hang on my office wall that Iām not currently using anyway.
Anyone else been waiting?
I put my application in Late July and got a letter confirming August 2. Now its the waiting gameā¦
Sent in an application 8/24 and got the acknowledgment letter 9/7.
Hoping for the best nowā¦
I sent in an application 7/2 andā¦havenāt heard anything. Is the acknowledgment letter a physical letter? Iām still working remotely, so I guess if they sent one itās sitting at the office somewhere. As far as I know my listed supervisor hasnāt heard from them either.
I got my ea while the joint board were all wfh during covid last year, so I think the acknowledgement letter was emailed to me. Regardless Iād think your supervisor would have heard by now. Iād check that they got it.

My acknowledgement letter was emailed - not aware of a physical one since Iām working from home.
On the same day they sent me the acknowledgement letter, they also reached out to my supervisors.
