During its Aug. 29 meeting, the VBOA approved that:

• All exam credits active as of Dec. 15 will have a lifespan of at least 30 months.
• Exam credits earned after Jan. 9, 2024, will have a lifespan of 30 months (2.5 years) that begins on the score release date.

Please note: Candidates will not see their new expiration date reflected in their NASBA Candidate Portal until the new exam is implemented in January of 2024.

The board voted to suspend the fees associated with processing re-exam requests during the transition to the new version of the CPA exam known as CPA Evolution.

The suspension began Sept. 1 and will last until at least March 31, 2024, at which time the fee will be revisited.*

The re-exam fees were $20 for each application (sometimes called a “payment coupon request”) scheduled after the initial exam application.

*The fee suspension has been extended through Dec. 31, 2025.
