I've tried the loophole and I've always gotten the message that "all exams are in process". Oh well. But I've hit that point where I've started dreaming that I've failed which is rather depressing. It would be nice to be surprised and have WI post scores early next week to end the misery!

MissCue - Have you contacted NASBA to find out whether or not they've received your score for FAR? Also, I see you scored really well on REG. I'm working on that section right now. Did you use Becker, and do you have any tips?
Thanks,
Jan

I did call NASBA and they do have my score, that's one of the reasons why I'm frustrated with the loophole.
I don't really have any tips with Reg - I work in Tax, so that helped a lot for preparing. I did use Becker - all I did was probably over study as it was my first exam. I just did the lectures, read the material and did TONS of MQ questions.

MissCue - Thanks, and I bet working in the field was a big help for REG. I do hope we're pleasantly surprised with scores released early this week.
varhej68 - Hopefully we all passed! Wouldn't that be something?

When exactly would the loophole work for Wisconsin? It is after the AICPA has released scores to NASBA, but before NASBA has uploaded them. Or do we know that NASBA has uploaded them (since they told us they have our scores) but just not released them?

When I try the above loophole it says "All or some sections of your NTS have been attended but scores have not been received", even though NASBA has told me several times that they have received my score. So does that mean the Ohio Loophole will not work yet?

Do you think my score was pushed to wave two even if NASBA told me they had my score early last week?

I am SO frustrated right now.
I need to register for the next two sections of the exam, and I went online to the Wisconsin/NASBA area to register as a re-exam candidate. I had hoped to hold off scheduling until I know whether or not I passed FAR, but I want to get scheduled for October, and I don't think I can wait any longer.
So I'm thinking that re-registration will be a snap compared to the first-time application process. Wrong. When I tried to reregister, the site was down. Then, it finally came back up, and I learned that I need a jurisdiction ID number in order to register again. I looked everywhere on my confirmations, etc., and nowhere is this mysterious jurisdiction number printed. Finally, I notice in small print online that the jurisdiction ID number is printed on the score release report, as someone mentioned here. What score release report? I don't have a score release report for the two sections I've taken yet, even though everyone else in every other state already has theirs.
I was able to click on a link to send an e-mail requesting the jurisdiction ID number, and I did that, but no response back! Then, it seemed like maybe I could use my Social Security number instead, but then it wouldn't accept that either. I worked 14 hours today and had no time to make phone calls.
Why does this process need to be this way?

I know what you mean Jan. I ended up having to stretch this whole process to about a year. I never really wanted to start preparing for the next exam until I knew whether or not I passed the exam I just took. It is really frustrating that this process is so drug out. Having an 18 month window to pass exams before they start lapsing and then having only 4 testing windows is back enough without waiting a month at least for your scores to come out.

Okay, so I called NASBA and got my jurisdiction ID#,. and it still won't let me re-register online (says my profile cannot be located). I called NASBA, and they took my registration over the phone instead. Whew . . .

Per NASBA -
The first wave of score release has been
completed, no additional scores will be released until the second wave of score
release begins in the third week of September. If your score has been released its available online at http://www.NASBA.org
So, another week for Wisconsin? Or do you think WI will be generous and release tonight?

Ugh Jan that is terrible! I always take my tests at the end of a testing window to shorten the wait to about a month. I can't even imagine people who take it in the beginning of wave 1 and are pushed to wave 2. This process is such a nightmare. Hopefully they'll have wave 1 scores out by the end of the week for you guys.

I just received a response from the email I sent last week...
If your score was received during the first waive, it will be released this week sometime or after the Holiday. Otherwise the next scheduled release will be the first week of October.

"If your score was received during the first waive, it will be released this week sometime or after the Holiday. Otherwise the next scheduled release will be the first week of October."
So, basically the scores will be released either now or later. :o)
Are we in the twilight zone?
Will they possibly release Friday night even though the weekend is a holiday?
