• The first step in the application process of the uniform US CPA exam is to determine whether you are qualified/eligible to take the exam or not.
• Each state sets different education requirements to sit for the uniform CPA exam. Most of the states require a bachelor’s degree in accounting or business with credit hour requirements and certain coursework.
• US CPA license which is awarded by all the 55 accountancy state boards (usually, the entire evaluation process and selection of state board will be outsourced to Simandhar Education and candidates just need to study well).
• International candidates need to clear the CPA exam within 3 years and fulfill certain requirements like:
• Pass all 4 CPA exams. • Need to have 150 credits (Simandhar Education has a bridge course that will help you to get desired credits).

• The candidate has to pass the ethics exam. 2. Send official transcripts to the state board:
• Before filling out the actual application, you must have to send all your transcripts to the state board (you have to send all your school transcripts including community colleges, junior colleges, and universities that you attended).
• It’s really good to order all your transcripts from the colleges immediately after your graduation and send them to your state board. The state board will keep all the transcripts on file once they receive them. 3. Submit CPA exam fee:
• Once all your transcripts are submitted to your state board then you are allowed to fill out the actual CPA exam application. Usually, this is a short form that asks a bunch of education and personal questions.
• After filling this form, you have to send it with the CPA application fee.
