I submitted my application 4/19/20 and have had no luck getting in contact with anyone at Mass Board of Accountancy via email or phone. I know that COVID has closed offices, resulted in delays, etc… but I’m just trying to get a rough estimate of licensure processing times. Has anyone had any recent contact with anyone from Mass Board of Accountancy or received a license approval recently?

Thanks,
Angela

Hey, have you heard back from them? I'm on the same boat. Only I sent my application early May. They don't seem to answer phone calls or respond to emails.

Ironically enough, I received my CPA license number from MA yesterday! I believe they're severely short staffed. Just before July 4th I was lucky enough to get someone on the phone and she actually reviewed my application while I was on with her. All was in order and she said the final piece was the Background Check and to email back in a few days. I did email back twice and called numerous times and received a response to my second email. I would say to be persistent with the calls and emails. Also, when you email them try emailing this link as it may receive more attention.

Best of luck,
