Sheetal,

Your exam credits do not expire. When you apply for your license, your verifying CPA has to attest only to work experience that was gained within the last 5 years.

Could anyone on this forum please share what univeristy / college they used to complete their US GAAS Audit course? It would be helpful to those of us who need this course to complete the license requirements.

Thanks Sujatha.
Then i guess i will wait till i find a job and then apply for license based on
work experience. I dont wish to spend any more money on additional
courses..

FYI.. i had emailed colicense@nasba.org asking the following
question:"Does the board recommend any courses for meeting the
additional sem hours requirement? Preferably an online course? "

Their reply was as below:
"There are no schools recommended by the Board or us here at NASBA,
however, online courses are acceptable. There are several online
accredited institutions that offer auditing courses with US GAAS coverage.
The University of Phoenix is a good example, and they offer courses that
start every few weeks. I believe their online courses can take about 4-6
weeks to complete."

 Do give up so fast. You might have the CPA Gods working in your favor. I am in the same situation as you are. But i dont even have a license from any other state. I reside in PA and passed the exams. I work as a cost accountant but dont have any "Attest" experience. After doing some research, Pa is only one of few states that require such experience. Due to this burden lot of aspiring CPA candidates were moving out of the state.

Well, now there is a bill floating around in the PA House of Rep. assembly to give away with the 25% attestation requirement. i been following the bill religiously. It passed the House with 199-0 votes (yes!!!) and moved on to the PA senate. But due the lame duck senate scheduling, they only meet a few times a month. So, if they are going to decide on it (if for 2012), then it would be probably in Nov 2012. If they pass, then i could apply for the license because i could use industry experience (non audit) to count towards the license.

You could google the Bill and read more about it:
