how long does it take to know if you passed the cpa exam
A passing score remains valid for 18 months from the date indicated in your letter from CPAES. After 18 months, if you have not completed all four sections of the exam, the score expires and you must retake that section of the exam.or example, if you receive your CPA certificate in August of 2006, you must meet the requirements for the CPE year beginning on July 1, 2007. If you earn your CPA certificate in May of 2007, your CPE year begins on July 1, 2007.
