Submitted 2nd of January 2:43am EST and still didn't receive any mail. But since I work in credit risk management / Basel reporting for 3 years now I am 100% sure it will be accepted. So it seems it does not necessarily go by the time you submitted... Cause I think I did pretty early
I’m working in investment risk in asset management since 10 years and submitted 2nd 00:48. It for sure not FIFO
Please keep in mind that it can take 4-6 weeks for GARP to approve work experience. Sometimes people will receive approval sooner, but they have always said that it can take over one month. I have seen it take up to 8 weeks in the past.

HI @Dunston i think people care because you need the work experience approval to actually use the designation on your resume/linkedin; e.g., "David Harper, FRM" or "David Harper, Certified FRM" ... personally, I totally get it: when you work really hard to finish something, it's exciting to be able to display it . There is/was some permissible language prior to experience approval, see here

I really want to start applying for another job. My current one gets too boring and I already found so many exciting job postings that I can't wait to apply. Of course my chances are higher if I can use the FRM. That's why I check the page every hour. Each day of delay means more applicants and more competition for me on these interesting jobs.
Ah ok - I figured it was something like that. Personally I wouldn't delay in applying for other jobs. You can add to your CV that you have passed the exams and your relevant work experience will be displayed on the CV also so I don't think you are at any disadvantage to other Certified FRM holders...
@Dunston,
Unfortunately, since you can't use the FRM designation after your name until the work experience is verified, there are employers who won't hire someone even if they have passed the exam because they need to see that you are a certified FRM. There is the chance that GARP could deny the work experience and the hiring employer has no way of knowing that in advance so they wait for the actual certification to hire employees. Obviously not all hiring managers require this, but many of them will. That is why it is very difficult for people to be patient when waiting for their work experience to be approved, especially if they are waiting on a job that requires the actual FRM certification.

Yes I hate this feeling. I have this quarantine stuff and when I see 5 email from garp in quarantine my heart starts beating. Then I see it's only some event stuff
