Here lies the answer I received. I don't think I should take this as the
final answer, and perhaps I can dig deeper. Any suggestions? Do you
think our little Trika can assist?

I don't care what Kanika says, the cert planner is what is used. The cert
planner clearly shows CISSP (ISC2) as a valid elective. There are plenty of
examples of items on the cert planner that are not spelled out on the
learning pages. You have already passed 298, so you need two items in the
Security Group-Core section, one of which is CISSP (ISC2). Does the cert
planner show a check mark next to CISSP for you?

I would approach it that way, not asking IF it is accepted, but WHY is it
not checked for you. Tell MS that according to the cert planner, it shows
CISSP as an option, which you hold but it is not selected. Find out what
you need to do to get it selected. You may have to go through your CISSP
and ask them to associate it with your MCPID on Microsoft, I am not sure of
the procedure.

Once you get it checked on the cert planner, then determine what other
elective you want to complete, either 299 or Security+ or one of the other
ISA options.
