Any ACCA members here who have written the CPA exams? Do any of the people on the forum here know of anyone ?

I am a member and I became a member of ACCA (UK) very recently. This was not my eligibility criteria for writing CPA exams. I am also a CA.So, I do not know and I can't answer your question.

There will be a lot of ACCA's writing CPA exams from Colorado Board.May be you have to wait for some time till someone responds.

Ok, I got it at the "nasba site" :

NOTE: Applicants who have earned degrees or course credit at institutions without regional accreditation may be considered under the stipulations of Colorado Rules 2.2B or C, and 2.3B.)

Effective October 29, 2009, the Board has suspended the use of the Chartered Accountant eligibility for purposes of the examination and licensure.

All educational transcripts, Affidavit of Eligibility, SSN Affidavit, Certificate of Enrollments, and/or foreign evaluations are required to be submitted at the time of application. Official school transcripts, Certificate of Enrollments and/or foreign evaluations are required to be mailed directly to CPA Examination Services from the institution. Photocopies or transcripts “Issued to Student” are not acceptable.

So this applies to new candidates and not to old candidates who were deemed eligible for the examination prior to the rule change on Oct 29, 2009? Can someone please verify? Thanks!

If you see all the tabs for the CO Board on the NASBA website, they have written that the exam application and licensure is on hold till the Board meets on December 9,2009

It will not affect those who are writing the exams and passed few sections.It may affect for Licensure.

I have only one exam BEC left to write at the end of this month while waiting for AUD results. Got to see.

Thanks ! I also have only AUD to go.. let's see.. So, I guess now for licensure, they won't be accepting CA qualification under Rule 2.5 "education in lieu of experience"... Not sure why they have changed the rules !

Hi Divya,

We will wait and see the outcome on December 9, 2009. More information will be on the NASBA website at that time.

I have really benefited from your questions on certification & licensure on this forum about a month back. So I know you are almost done with the exams.

Hi Guvernor,

Thank you for starting the discussion on CO Board about the new rule.

It is better to know the changes now than later .
