Hey there! Not sure if you ever got a solution. I'm having a similar issue in Florida, but more about the consecutiveness of the work experience (Ie does it have to be the same employer). I kept getting the Florida statute just emailed to me as well when I wrote in my question. But I wanted to get the answer in writing just in case. For my issue I'm assuming it doesn't have to be consecutive since it doesn't state so.
Anyways when I called and spoke to a representative they said the CPA who signs off can be anyone, so long as it's a CPA. She said it can be your boss, family, or even a friend so long as they sign off and essentially verified your work. That's my understanding.
