I agree with what’s been said, not to discredit their contributions, but if the experts applied today, 90% of them would likely be refused. In reality, getting endorsed comes down to meeting most of the criteria, along with God’s mercy and favour, plus a measure of luck, the right assessor and good timing. You are all doing well. God will shine His light upon everyone seeking endorsements

I’m still trying to understand the issue here. Are the experts the reason for the rejections? Honestly, it’s not fair to make such statements about people who have contributed to a platform you’ve benefited from in one way or another. Just imagine if this platform didn’t exist, things could be much worse. Let’s please let’s be respectful.

If anyone paid an expert who guaranteed endorsement or misled them, feel free to mention the person’s name, so he/she can be advised to refund. This forum is a free repository of knowledge, where people dedicate their time to help others.

@Larry0901, I’m glad you mentioned 90%, because there’s still that 10% who will get endorse.But of what use is the argument?

Let’s please stop all this.It’s okay to share frustrations, but let’s avoid personal attacks.

All the best.

@Raphael , I think there is a fundamental misunderstanding on your side. There are loads of self-acclaimed experts outside this forum. I do not even think people have positioned themselves as experts on this platform, because there is usually a disclaimer attached to every contribution. But we have loads of them on LinkedIn, YouTube, Reddit, etc. I guess people are just venting their frustration on the platform. Nobody has necessarily attacked anyone personally too.

I also understand your point, because you have been a major contributor on this platform. Conversations like this might really feel weird.

@All, please, can we all go back to why we are here? Please, let’s keep the positive vibes going.

Let’s focus on why we are here. I understand morale is low because of the recent feedback, but we must keep the positive vibes going.

@Rachel I understand that there are experts outside this forum, and unfortunately, they won’t get to see or respond to this discussion. My point is simply that I understand the frustration we’re all feeling, and I’m not insensitive to it. But the way the conversation is going, it’s beginning to sound as though the experts here are being blamed for the rejections and that’s not fair.

Sorry about the feedback . You can apply for review.

I think for all the rejections let’s go for review. Starting this January seems like there are so many rejections. Not sure what got changed recently.

Sorry to hear that. May you get endorsment with appeal.

Anyone still waiting whose referred date is 16 February or earlier?

Hi guys! Let’s support each other’s efforts. I truly believe that when we’re disrespectful of other people’s work, others will be disrespectful of ours.

For those who appealed between January and March, how long did you wait for a response? I think there are so many appeals :sob:

It will again take 8 weeks. I am also interested to know are they getting endorsed when appealed.

my appeal was referred today.
had some free time and stalked this forum to as far back as 2021.

damn! not bragging but i would have gotten endorsed with my exact application around 2021-2023. i feel my current document structure is on par or even better than many ones that got approved.

time have changed truly, it is understandable that they make it more tighter but damn people qualified with way less back then. i feel jealous haha.

hopefully people that get endorsed in 2026 share more of their documents structure so we can have a good idea of how to position ourselves.

if you get endorsed please share your structure, can redact the specifics, it will help most of us.

goodluck to everyone still waiting!

Hi everyone ,

Please for those that got their feedback recently , especially Feb 19, in the home office email, could you please check the date your decision was made ? Usually, feedback comes with home office email that tells you the exact date the decision about your application was made . It is usually different from the date you get the email. Roughly 3 -7 days before getting the email.

Trying to check if those that got referred to Tech Nation during week Feb 8 - Feb 16 might get their feedback by the end of the week .
