The small company I work for was just acquired by a huge international public corporation. There is no active CPA that works in our office, however we now work directly with a CPA who lives in another state. She has been here for weeks and will be here for a few more, then will be popping in an out and helping us through the transition and essentially supervising us from now on, however from another state. I had no idea what I was going to do for my experience requirement before this huge change, so I am wondering if anyone has experience with a supervisor not being in the office but able to sign off? I mean, instead of physically giving me a project to do, it will be emailed to me and double checked by the CPA.

Thanks for any insight! I don’t want to think about this anymore in depth or get excited before I have opinions from you all.

My situation is not the same as your but similar.

So I live in California but my main office is in Houston. My direct Supervisor is not a CPA but the main managers in the Finance Department are CPA's who my supervisor reports to and I report to indirectly.

There is a lot of interaction I have with the main managers and I do work for them directly in many cases.

They have signed off on my work experience for me and they are Licensed in Texas. So CBA will have some sort of back ground check done on them to make sure their licenses are clean etc.

Ugh, my reply didn't send?! Boo… anyway, your experience is pretty much the same as mine it sounds like. Let me know the outcome – when are you planning to submit your app?
