    Hi everyone! I’m about to mail my application remittance form and $100 payment to the California Board of Accountancy for my initial application to take the CPA board exam. I have a few questions:

    1. What in your opinion is the best mailing option? I want to prioritize reliability and speed. Should I choose USPS, UPS, or FedEx?

    2. Do you recommend that I send my payment in CASH rather than check? I ask because I would like my application to be approved asap, so that I may still have the chance to sit for a late August exam. If I send in a check, I was thinking that clearing time might delay the application process. I tried searching California Board of Accountancy’s website and nothing is mentioned regarding cash payments.

    Thank you very much!

    I personally would mail a check USPS. If you want faster, you can get overnight from UPS or FedEx, but it will definitely cost more. And I would NEVER mail cash. Just sounds like a bad idea in my opinion.

    Do Not Send Cash. Actually never mail Cash.

    USPS should be fine.

    I sent mine through USPS and did it certified return receipt, and I agree that it is never a good idea to mail cash.

    Thanks for all of your responses. I'll probably choose USPS since most of you suggested it.

    @64isbetterthan74 I wish I could. I don't think you can do that for California, right?
