    Anyone registered from Virginia might know this. So I gave FAR 1/24/15 and my Audit was expiring 1/31/15. I got my score on 2/23 and I passed FAR which was my last section. I want to make sure that I got credit for all the exams and I can apply for the license. The score report from NASBA says credit in all the parts. But I heard some boards have different requirements they count the date on which you sit for the exam not the date you passed your first exam. I have tried contacting Virginia board but haven’t heard back. Virginia board didn’t update my FAR score. Don’t want to lose credit for my 2 exams.

    In TX the 18 month window starts from the date that the state board receives your advisory score from NASBA which is the day the score is posted to the NASBA site. I think it varies from state to state and whether or not your state is a NASBA state or not. I would contact the board. Really hope it works out.

    I think Virginia is a NASBA state, that's what they posted on their website: .

    ” It is the responsibility of the exam candidate to schedule any unpassed sections of the exam within 18 months of passing one or more sections. In the event that all four sections of the exam are not passed within the 18-month period, credit for any section(s) passed before the 18-month period will expire and that section(s) must be retaken”.

    This means clock starts after passing the first exam?

    My other question is they count the exam date (the date on which you sit for the exam) or the date on which you receive your scores?

    VA uses the date you took the exam, not score release date.

    VA starts the clock on the last day of the month you took/passed your 1st exam

    @nolifecpa i think you are right, VA does start the clock at the end of the month in which you take the exam. That's why all of my exams have end of the month expiration date. So I took July 1st and clock starts July 31st 2013 and expires Jan 31st 2015 (18 months). I guess I should be fine, I hope so.
