I am studying for my CPA exam right now and ready to take REG early next month. I took BEC last month already. I am currently working at a public accounting firm in New York. Because of the 150-hours rule(I have 130 hours now), I applied to sit for the New Hampshire CPA instead of New York. Initially, I thought upon completion of the exams and obtaining New Hampshire CPA, I could easily transfer my scores back to New York by taking some additional courses to meet the 150-hours rule. However, today I was told that in order for the scores to be transferrable from a 120-hours state to a 150-hours state, I MUST have 150-hours at the time of the exam. So, right now, my concerns are:

n

1. Is that the only way to transfer my scores or are there any other options? And, do I need to retake the exam if I can’t transfer my scores?

n

2. If I keep my New Hampshire CPA, then according to the mobility law (if I interpret it correctly), could I practice outside of New Hampshire, i.e.: New York. And if I could, under what circumstances? In public or in private firms?

Thank you! Help needed!!!n
