I’ve attempted FAR twice and failed, attempted AUD once and failed. I only have a passing score for BEC and yet to attempt REG and my credit expires in July 2017 so I’ll be attempting FAR, REG and AUD, which seems impossible looking at my history in passing. Not motivated and feeling really bad about all of this. And after this delay, I can’t be losing the credit and starting all over. My state board is Alaska. Emailed AICPA and Alaska, both say that they’d evaluate every individuals exam history in June and decide. IS there any hope for me ????

I'd imagine you'd get an extension of one testing window but still need to pass three by the end of this year. Do you at least have the other three scheduled? Would probably go a long way toward convincing them to grant the extension.

Also if you're not waiting for a Q2 score it's going to be a difficult sell to convince any board the delayed score release caused you to lose a credit. Not sure if you've had an extenuating circumstance for only three attempts since your BEC pass 16 months ago but that might be a better reason for an extension than the delayed score release.

Thanks for your response ! Yes I have FAR scheduled at the end of May but still need to pick my dates for REG and AUD, which would be before July 17th since thats when my BEC credit expires. Honestly, I've had personal reasons and I'm sure they wont help getting me an extension, I take all responsibility for my delay, and this score release got me really worried since I could fail and not get a chance to retry. Hoping for the best and giving all my effort for the next 2-3 months to really get through it and hopefully pass as well.
