    Hi guys! I recently passed all my cpa exams and preparing to apply for the cpa license in the state of hawaii. I earned my credentials from a foreign school and in compliance w/ the requirement I had my credits evaluated (by an acceptable agency at that time)ybefore I took the exam and result by then showed that I earned about 200 credit hours, way more over the required to sit for the exam & hawaii license of 150 hours. Unfortunately, after I passed the exam, I received a letter from nasba that there were some changes made regarding the educational process for the Hawaii examination/license. That I was grandfathered in with the foreign evaluation company that had completed my foreign education for the Hawaii CPA Examination, but the Hawaii Board of Public Accountancy has now required only the NASBA Int’l Evaluation Services to confirm educational requirements portion for licensing as a CPA for Hawaii. Therefore, I applied for NIES evaluation. I just received the evaluation from them and it appeared that I only have 125 hours. That means now I didn’t meet the 150 credits.

    Knowing this, what should I do now?

    Should I contact our board of acc? Or do I wait them to call me? Or should I go ahead and enroll to get some credits?

    I’m not sure what to do.

    Need advise please.

    Thanks,
