Hello everyone,

I was just curious, do I have to have received my passing score from all 4 exams within 18 months or just have taken them within 18 months?

My FAR is going to expire in August and I want to know when I should schedule my exam (I want to give myself as much time as possible).

Thanks in advance!!

You have to pass all four within 18months. I am in the same zone as you. I have one left to pass (waiting for scores now), and if I don't pass then I need to schedule the next retake before August when my REG exam score expires. I figure I can fit two exams in before the deadline, but I hope not to need them.

If your FAR expires AUG 10 ( as an example) you could in theory sit for your last section ON Aug 10 and as long as you receive a passing score, not lose credit. Common advice is to sit the day before (the 9th in this case) because its based on when AICPA receives your data from prometric which may be the following day in rare cases.

FAR- 77
AUD -49, 71, 84
REG -56,75!
BEC -75
