OH weeks, months….Yesterday, I got a notice that I needed to have ILBOA release my certification to IDFPR and they couldn't process the license any further until that was done. I handled it first thing this morning, and got a notice this afternoon that it was sent today…SNAIL MAIL. How many weeks it takes to go from Naperville to Springfield is the question. I sent my application in on 1/11 and they cashed my check on 1/22…mailed the above notice on 1/30. =)
I did get my certification notice and number within about 10 days of score release but you have to have a license to put CPA behind your name.
(I already have my email signatures updated in Outlook…just waiting for the day!)
I will apply for a license in Georgia as soon as I receive the IL number. I have to start a little side “firm” that starts with keeping the books for my father's company (Georgia) after his passing in December. Bittersweet. My step monster was the bookkeeper and she just walked away so I get to do it now. Mostly reviewing the financials, payroll and monthly tax reports, answering questions and making the magic happen, etc.
