Still checking Maine:

Does the following mean I need to be supervised by a US CPA or does it mean it could also be the foreign equivalent? or does it refer to a US CPA practising abroad?

10. Experience.  For initial issuance of a certificate under this subsection, an applicant shall demonstrate 2 years of experience under the direction of a certified public accountant licensed by any state or territory of the United States or equivalent direction, as determined by the board, by a licensed professional in another country and must meet the other requirements prescribed by the board by rule. The applicant's experience must include the use of accounting or auditing skills, including the issuance of reports on financial statements, and at least one of the following: the provision of management advisory, financial advisory or consulting services; the preparation of tax returns; the furnishing of advice on tax matters; or equivalent activities defined by the board by rule. Board rules adopted pursuant to this subsection are routine technical rules as defined in Title 5, chapter 375, subchapter 2-A. To the extent the applicant's experience is as a revenue agent or in a similar position engaged in the examination of personal and corporate income tax returns for the Bureau of Revenue Services, the applicant receives credit at the rate of 50% toward the experience required by this subsection.

(from http://www.mainelegislature.org/legis/statutes/32/title32sec 12228.html)


I work at a big4 firm, but unfortunately under no CPA not too many US CPAs here...


By the way: why do all indians take their exam in Delaware, do they all have US CPA supervisers or is there way around it.

Hey Bombata. Why are you concerned about CPE requirement? You can take CPE courses online and satisfy state boards requirement.

Here is for Delaware and it seems as long as you own an
associate degree is fine. However, I found that they
require US federal taxation.

License / Certificate awarded after passed all 4 exams
and meet work experience
requirement
1-2 yrs general accounting experience required
University or College graduates (minimum 60 semester
hours or equivalent
to 2 years of studies)
Accounting courses required: introductory accounting,
intermediate accounting,
advanced accounting, cost accounting, auditing and US
federal taxation
