    Hi,
    I am a qualified Chartered Accountant (CA) from India and applied for CPA exam registration.
    I got my international degrees evaluated from IACEI and they sent it to NASBA to check eligibility for CPA exam.
    I received mail yesterday from NASBA CPA Central saying that –

    “Our initial evaluation of your education has been completed. At this time, it appears you are not eligible for the Uniform CPA Examination (Exam) as a candidate of this state. The following deficiency was found:

    1. Must provide evidence that the Auditing course listed on your international education evaluation from IACEI includes coverage of US GAAS as is required by the CO State Board.”

    Please advice me for next step if somebody know about it or gone through the same problem.

    Thanks,
    Juhi

    I am a US candidate living/working in CO. I knew I would not meet CO education requirements so I had to apply for my initial license in Montana. Specifically, I did not meet the specific 6 credits of audit education requirements for CO. Once MT licensed me I applied through reciprocity to CO and due to substantial equivalency was licensed in CO. NASBA performs licensing services for both states. MT is very international friendly but make sure you perform and submit experience verification as they require it. Both states took about 5 months to complete the process.
    Good luck!
