Can one schedule exam beyond the validity deadline??

It's not possible to schedule the exam when your voucher has expired. I know you're asking for the sake of CASP voucher which is expiring this 31st December ?

So, here's something to keep in mind.

As you know, Vouchers have a 1 year life-span before they expire. This you already know. But you can schedule your exam a year out. So you have until the voucher's expiration date to SCHEDULE the exam, and a year to take it.

But if you haven't scheduled it and the voucher expires, that's it. It's gone.

You must pick a date on or before the stated expiration date. If you select a date after the expiration when you get to the payment screen in Pearson it will tell you that this voucher is not usable for the date selected. Just take it & see. You may pass.

Looks like I'm wrong and this is correct now - turns out you used to get a COUPON that would last a year, which would then turn into a VOUCHER, both had a year long lifespan. But I looked and compared...and we got VOUCHER codes.

Welp, I guess that's no longer the case, so I'm locked in for CASP+ 004 10am Dec 30...this Friday. Let's hope the winds are with me - that would be a great way to end the year.

It's a good thing I got a new coffee maker that makes Cafecito Cubanos...I'm gonna need it for a few late night study jam sessions.

Crank it up, y'all, let's see if Agent B can snag the big kahuna.

Meaning a voucher that is expiring on saturday 31st December can be booked for January next year?

No. A voucher exam can only be used to test up to the date on the voucher.

Cisco & apparently CompTIA also sells (or did at one time) something called a coupon which uses a 2 step process. First you convert the coupon (good for 365 days) to a voucher by the date on the coupon. Those vouchers were good for 365 days too, so if you waited until the last day of a coupon to convert it to the exam voucher, you could stretch your study window to almost 2 years. CompTIA TTT gives vouchers, so no flipping needed, just need to test on or before the date listed on the voucher.

Something I might be confusing is what I get for vouchers for being in the Academic CAPP program - those have always come in as Coupons that I would then redeem into Vouchers.

Either way...better get back to CertMaster here. Time's short and I want to be able to celebrate with all of you that have passed the CASP.
