Hello JD Milan, If you already passed 3 sections, I am sure you will pass FAR. My experience on FAR is doing exercises or multiple choice questions is very helpful.

On my 04/16/09 posting, I think one year work experience rule does not apply to me. FICPA also told me that the new rule would not apply to me. But for some reason, I still worry for it.

Does anyone know how long we need to wait to receive the license after we send the license application?  I sent the application last week and if I have to wait for long time, then I know something is wrong. Thanks!

 

Because I used to work for the State of Florida and I live here too, expect up to 4 weeks for any thing to get done. Usually licensing goes by faster but this is Florida.

Thanks cflas08. Now I know if I do not hear anything within 1 month, there must be something wrong. It is really a torture to wait. One of my friends has waited for 5 months for qualification to sit in the test and she is still waiting.

Five months? Did she verify that they received her paperwork? It does not take that long to receive eligibility status. Did they send her some thing saying that she is missing a qualification, such as a class? That's weird.

Hello cflas08, my friend sent her application in Dec. 08, and so far she has not received approval yet. She has Master's in accounting, but like me, never worked in CPA firm, never worked under a CPA's supervision. I think the new rule on work experience may affect her application.

LOL, referring to the past above it took the board of accountancy in Florida to get me approved in 6 months, I remember when I first applied (literally on my first day of work at Crowe) and it took forever, I used to call them weekly to get their butts in gear.
