It's taken 7 years and 8 months, but I have finally sent in my certification packet to DONA. Wish me luck!

Good for you! My certification just went through last week. I don't know if they are still backed up, but I sent my packet in Feb 21. Try to relax while you wait....I'm sure you'll be fine!

I sent my packet on February 21 and I heard from my reviewer on June 7 and it was finalized on June 12. So, once my reviewer got it, it went really quick. Hopefully they aren't quite as backed up and perhaps yours will go a bit quicker.

I'm sure they're turned done at least one person in the 20 years they've been around. If there is a problem or concern with your paperwork the person reviewing your packet will call to clarify or to ask you to amend something in your packet.
