    I just realized because I don’t work directly for a CPA my work experience won’t count in NJ.

    Can I change which state I get my certification AFTER passing the exams?

    Yes, you just transfer your scores to the other state.

    in VA your boss doesnt have to be a CPA,

    Prior to applying for a license, a person must have been employed in academia, a firm, government, or industry in any capacity involving the substantial use of accounting, financial, tax, or other skills that are relevant, as determined by the board, to providing services to the public using the CPA title or to an employer using the CPA title for a period that is the full-time equivalent of one year. Whether other skills are relevant shall be determined by the board on a case-by-case basis. Self-employment does not meet the definition of experience in § 54.1-4400 of the Code of Virginia.

    It sounds different but I have confirmed with our state board TWICE that the person signing off does NOT need to be a CPA
