In which jurisdiction s do you want to practice? In order to make an informed decision, please review the license requirements for the jurisdiction s in which you want to practice. Some states offer a pre-evaluation service. If you are applying to one of those states, you can submit a pre-evaluation application. After that application has been fully processed, if you are eligible, you can submit your first-time application and choose your sections. If your jurisdiction does not offer a pre-evaluation service, you will need to submit your initial application with your transcripts for an education evaluation.
The eligibility requirements vary by jurisdiction. Each jurisdiction has specific requirements regarding education, experience and residency.
Changes in examination content by the AICPA have no affect on eligibility requirements, which are jurisdiction-specific, and determined by the Board of Accountancy in each jurisdiction.
Site availability may vary due to individual test center hours of operation. Continuous testing will allow candidates to re-take a failed exam section shortly after receiving their score.
The only limitations on how many times you can take a section is the time it takes to receive a score, reregister, obtain the new NTS, and find an available testing date.
You must present your NTS at the testing center before beginning your examination. Your NTS will be valid for a specific amount of time. This time varies by jurisdiction. You must sit for the examination before your NTS expires. Your NTS is valid for one testing event or until the expiration date, whichever is first exhausted for each examination section. This includes non-testing months. If you received your NTS via email and still have your original message, you can print another copy.
If you received your NTS via U. You will not be permitted to enter the test center without a valid NTS. You can also reprint your NTS here. This varies for each jurisdiction. Your State Accountancy Board determines if credit is granted and the length of time credit is valid. Most jurisdictions allow a maximum of 18 months to pass all remaining sections in order to retain credit on the passed section s. Some states require candidates to complete the licensure eligibility requirements and application within a specific timeframe.
This timeframe varies by state. For additional information, please consult the Accountancy Licensing Library. You have until the end of testing on the day your credit expires. Remember, when scheduling your examination, some testing centers are not open on weekends or holidays. For some jurisdictions, the expiration date for conditional credit may fall in a non-testing month.
You may cancel or reschedule your appointment by contacting Prometric. There is no fee for canceling or rescheduling an appointment at least 30 days in advance.
If you cancel or reschedule between five and 30 days before your appointment, you must pay a fee directly to Prometric. If you reschedule within five days of your appointment, you will be required to pay the full Prometric testing fee for the section you are rescheduling. See the Candidate Bulletin for additional information regarding these fees.
You cannot make any changes to your appointment less than 24 hours in advance. You may schedule your examination at any Prometric site in any of the 54 jurisdictions. You do not have to sit in the same state where you applied. Please see the Test Internationally section of this website for more information. There are no restrictions on taking the examination outside of your jurisdiction. For students enrolled in a full-time accounting program or at least one accounting course.
If you receive your initial certificate between January 1 and June 30, your first CPE year will begin July 1 of that year. If you receive your initial certificate between July 1 and December 31, your first CPE year will begin July 1 of the following year. Log in. New opportunity for students. How long are my passing scores valid? After 18 months, if you have not completed all four sections of the exam, the score expires and you must retake that section of the exam.
The application approval process for first-time applicants takes about weeks. This document allows you to sign up for a CPA exam section in your state. You have 6 months from receiving your NTS step 5 to schedule your exam dates. If the time limit is exceeded, your exam fees will be lost and you will have to pay them again. This is probably the stupidest part of the application process because there is no reason for state boards or NASBA to do this. They just want your money. Either way, only sign up and pay for the sections that you want to take in the next six months.
You can sign up for the rest later. It takes about 4 weeks after applying for the CPA exam to receive your notice to schedule in the mail. This is the legal document that allows you to sit for and take the CPA exam in your state. You use this document to log onto the Prometric website to schedule your exam date. Like I said in step 4, your NTS is only valid for 6 months. Thus, you will only be able to use it to schedule the section you just paid for in the next 6 months.
There are a few states that have different NTS windows. You only have 90 days from your application date. Once you have your NTS in hand, you can log onto the Prometric testing center website and schedule your exam date. One thing worth mentioning is that all testing centers are slightly different in size. Thus, smaller ones will get full faster.
If you want a specific date, you should schedule it early or there might not be any open slots that day.
