hi friends this is how my ecmfg certification took place
Dates and sequenc-e of events a-re as under
25th August....................Got my Medical Diploma from university
7th September.................My Diploma reached USA
9th September.................ECFMG received my credentials which included form 344 and 345 (available from http://www.ecfmg.org/pubshome.html)
fill the form attach 2 copies of your medical school diploma and one photo of yourself with your usmle id and name on back of photo. also write your usmle id on the top and front of each page -of the application and the copies of your diploma) and send it via registered/certified mail/delivery confirmation mail so that you know when it reaches..
Also if you are in a hurry to get certified then you better open a DHL account at www.dhl.com and give your account- number to the ecfmg and ask them to use that account to send your credentials to your medical school for verification purpose, it saves a good 15 to 20 days as compared to normal post and also you can track your documents...............and it costs about 40$ to send the documents, the account can be opened for free.
16th september....................Oasis got updated that they received my credentials and they have sent it to my medical school in india
22nd september..................My medical school received ECFMG form -327 for verification of my medical credentials.
28th septmeber....................My medical school com-pleted the verification process, make sure you get BOTH the SIGN and STAMP of the DEAN on the verification, and also get your medical school to put in your transcript along with it as instructed -by the ecfmg. My medical school asked me to pay for the DHL charges so that they could send it via DHL to ECFMG. I emailed my friend in India to pay on my behalf so that my medical school sent verification to ecfmg.
2nd October.....................My medical school sent my verification to ecfmg via DHL
7th October.......................My verification is received by ecfmg
14th October...................My OASIS is updated and it states that my verification has been received by ecfmg on 7th-
24th October................MY OASIS shows that my documents have been verified
1st November...............My OASIS states that my ECFMG_CERTIFICATE has been issued on --25th October.........and they have FEDEXed it to me on 1st November
7th Novmeber.............I am writing this post, not yet received my actual physical ecfmg certificate via fedex but am very glad- that i have been ECFMG ceritified.
So -all -in all it took me around 1.75 months to completed the process...of credentials verification -(I had already passed my three exams earlier)
all the best to all and feel free to ask any questions.......-
