    When I took REG, I could tell by the software that I’d have access to the Internal Revenue Code for looking up tax info during Sims.

    In the ninja AUD program, there’s some built in authority on auditing. What is that exactly?

    BEC - 87 | 02/28
    REG - 70 | 06/10, REMATCH | 08/30
    AUD - XX | 09/10
    FAR - XX | 12/10

    The best free resource to the U.S. tax code is through Cornell University of Law:

    The AICPA reached out to me to share this – hope it's helpful:

    Candidates who have been deemed eligible to take the exam are entitled to a free six-month online subscription to the professional literature that is used on the exam. This package includes the AICPA Professional Standards, FASB Original Pronouncements and FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This online package will familiarize candidates with the use of online accounting resources.

    Candidates can register and get more information here: https://www.aicpa.org/BecomeACPA/CPAExam/ForCandidates/HowToPrepare/Pages/literature.aspx

    That free subscription is a waste imo. It's hard to navigate and isn't anything like the AL on the exam. They should just give us access to the same AL that we will be using during the test.

    for audit it is the AICPA standards for attest, audit and review. google will point you right there. each standard has its own searchable pdf. these are the standards for nonissuers. also review PCAOB5 for issuers to prep for AUD.

    if you want things to change, you have to do something different
