time frame

On April 24, 2023, NASBA's Board of Directors approved a change to its Uniform Accountancy Act (UAA) Model Rules that increase from 18 months to 30 months the time frame for a CPA candidate to complete the Exam once the candidate passes the first section.

Please be advised that the UAA Model Rules have no immediate effect on state board rules. Current Exam candidates remain under existing rules until, if, and when, the Board to which they applied makes changes.
