Looks good so far! The third edit is like a make-or-break situation. You’ve gotten two so far, so you’re still pretty much in the running!
On my part, it’s been 4 days since my 2nd edit, and I’m getting nervous. Any thoughts, guys?

Finally I can come here to type something. I have always come here to read and just learn from everything shared here. It has been a very long and tough journey but I’m glad my mind is at peace now. Thank you to all who share information here, you are all appreciated.
Submitted - 19th September
1st Edit - 26th September
2nd Edit - 4th October
3rd Edit - 8th October
4th Edit - 16 October
5th Edit - 30 October
Rejected - 2nd November
Reason for rejection was that for OC3 and I was given MC and OC1. Reason was I didn’t show my impact and didn’t explain what my contribution was.
I would be honest to say that my evidence for OC3 was just a design and I didn’t explain my personal contribution.
I applied for an appeal 3 days after the rejection letter after reading again and again and speaking to some tech nation alumni and I explained what my contribution was in my appeal. I also pointed another project I worked on that clearly showed my impact according to tech nation criteria even though I didn’t use this as OC3.
Appeal/review submitted - 5th November
I observed there are edits during review as well.
So edits during review.
Submitted - 5th November
Sent to home office - 7th November
First Edit - 21st November (I think)
2nd Edit - 26th November
3rd Edit - 29th November
Endorsement - 1st December (For Promise).
I’m wishing everyone a positive result. Don’t also feel discouraged about a rejection, just read their reasons carefully and try to seek advice from people who have had the experience and send a review.

I believe there isn’t a pattern.
Like @Francisca_Chiedu always said - put a good case, prove that you are passionate and was able to have relevant contribution in your field.
I was watching the topics and a bit worried about the edits but they don’t really help a lot. I had days with multiple edits, and long periods with no edits during the process.
Applying from the UK, I got endorsed for talent in 3 weeks and 2 days - Tech IC type of profile.

Got the endorsement, Thanks to all the community here.

Just curious, at what time they’ve sent the email?
It’s not a factual indication of anything. But, we on this forum have noticed that after the 3rd edit, most people get endorsed within 1 - 2 working days.
But, nowadays, we’ve seen people get endorsed after about 5 edits spanning 4-5 weeks.

Please, do you mind sharing your edit timeline so far?
Congratulations. I really don’t know how this edit thread became a thing. It just makes people anxious. There are profiles who just need to go to sleep knowing they will get endorsed.

not yet, really hope to get anything already
I agree there isn’t a common pattern and it varies based on different profiles
I have completely different pattern in my case:
Submitted on 7th Nov
1st edit: 16th Nov
No more edits

Hello Guys,
About to submit my application for Talent this weekend.
Any very recent changes (from TechNation) i need to keep abreast of to be sure i don’t miss any fundamental information?
Thank you.
I submitted my application on Nov 13, I’m still waiting on them.
Yes, I’ve seen a similar pattern. What happened in the case I saw, was that the edits later came in a waterfall — 3 in quick succession within 2 days.
Got the endorsement (Talent) on 1st December! My track:
Application: 6th November
1st edit: 15th November
2nd edit: 27th November
3rd edit: 30th November (14:53 GMT)
4th edit: 30th November (14:54 GMT)
Email: 1st December
Good luck to all!
