    Hello All,

    I just took FAR today. I found out results in mid-August. My BEC expires on July 8th.

    I heard they are extending the expiration dates for those folks that have a section expiring because of the delay in releasing scores in some states – is this true? Is it true for CA?

    What sucks is that I will not be able to take FAR or BEC until October, because September is a blackout month, and my REG expires on November 19th. I’m OK with taking BEC again, but if I have to take REG again, I think I’ll give up trying to be a CPA.

    You're so close, don't give up! I would kill to have just one test passed.

    It's true Boards of Accountancy in certain states are granting extensions. It's been discussed in several other threads but I don't remember what people have said about California. Search for it in the Forum Search and I'm sure you'll get some good info.

    Q3 and Q4 are each extended 10 days so you could take a section in September if you need too.

    E-Mail or contact your state board. NY is making exceptions, but its all on the state.

    I'm in the same boat as you. In OC California. I just took AUD yesterday (retake) and may potentially lose my BEC credit in November 2018. The feeling sucks and I'm slightly panicking. I am going to send in another application and $50, just as a safety net so that if I do fail AUD then I will hopefully manage to get a new NTS between Aug 15-Sept 10. If I pass, I hear that you can call the state board and ask for a refund. Since it's basically a customer deposit liability that they're holding on to (haha…)

    AUD - 81
    BEC - 79
    FAR - 81
    REG - 84
    AUD: 73, 81
    BEC: 79
    FAR: 66, 69, 81
