I got my notification of passing FAR from the state of Florida in the mail yesterday. Included in the envelope was a flier, “How to apply for Florida licensure”.

All the way at the bottom it says:

– Submit CPA Original Licensure application and nonrefundable fee…

– Score 80% (20 out of 25) on the Florida Laws and Rules Examination.

Does anyone know anything about this? This is the first I’ve heard of this test. What kind of questions are on it?

REG - Nov 4, 2013: 88
FAR - Feb 27, 2014: 86
AUD - April 5, 2014: 91
BEC - May 6, 2014: 83

I hope this letter isn't indicating a new requirement. It did not come with my notification when I passed Reg. I immediately noticed it only because of all of the chatter I hear about the Ethics exam for some of the other states. I'm curious if anyone else received this notice.

Just to help make sure, since that was the re-establishment FAQ, I also found this page where it talks about that rule being repealed: https://www.flrules.org/gateway/RuleNo.asp?title=EXAMINATIONS&ID=61H1-28.007

But you might want to call them to confirm. At the very least to let them know they should probably update their paperwork!

Congrats!!!
