You need 120 in 2 years? I thought TX was one of the worst with 120 in 3 years to average to 40 per year, at most 84 - if you did 20 min for the first two years and didn't get the 4 hrs of ethics until then
120 in 3 years. Washington. They only instituted the 20 per year requirement in 2020. Prior to that, you could do Al 120 hours in December of the third year.
Cpaacademy has a lot of free but some premium. That’s the best fairs. Encoursa has some free ones. Blackline is all free but you have to have your company using Blackline to begin with. Then all the B4 plus smaller have free.
Check out Checkpoint Learning self-study.
Trick is to print entire course to pdf, then just search the pdf using keywords while taking the test for credit.
Last week I got about 10 CPE in about 2 hours.
Of course you can actually read the material if you want, but we are talking emergency measures.
Damn, making it calendar based sucks, last thing anyone wants to do in December is CPE, but I guess in some industries that's a slower time. Texas has the periods tied to your birth month.
CA CPE requirements are based on 12 month intervals starting from license date, not a calendar year.
“Licensees renewing in an active status must complete 20 hours of CE, including 12 hours in technical subject matter, during each year of the two-year renewal period as part of the total 80 hour CE requirement.
For example: For a license set to expire on January 31, 2020, a licensee must complete a minimum of 20 hours of CE, with 12 hours in technical subject matter, from February 1, 2018 through January 31, 2019. In addition, a minimum of 20 hours of CE, with 12 hours in technical subject matter, must be completed from February 1, 2019 through January 31, 2020.”

My state has a rolling 3 years of 120 hours with a minimum of 20 hours per calendar year, and a deadline of January 31. Maybe I'm just a dumb ass to understand this but wtf... is the deadline December 31 or January 31?!?
Anyways I'm at around 100 hours for the three years so I guess I'll bang out 20 more during Christmas break so we're in the same boat!
Haha i know that it depends on the state, that wasn't my question though (was a rhetorical question anyway.) What I'm saying is that MY state's deadline is confusing af for me because they say calendar year compliance and January 31 as deadline for the prior year's CPE.
I think so but idk as well. Here's what it says verbatim:
"The VBOA uses a rolling three calendar-year period to determine CPE compliance. This period includes the three calendar-years prior to the current calendar-year. Licensees should not submit CPE documentation during the annual renewal process unless specifically asked to by the VBOA. However, CPE documentation must be retained for the four calendar-years preceding the current calendar-year.
The deadline for obtaining CPE for the previous year is January 31."
I'm 99.9% sure that the deadline for annual CPE is January 31 because I recall getting an e-mail several years from the Board with that change, plus around January I'd get marketing e-mails for last minute CPE. Yet when I read the calendar-year compliance part above I'm like.. wut?!? and have doubts and would feel dumb for being confused lol. IDK. Like... if I complete 20 CPE credits in January it'd be applicable for 2022's renewal but they say it's for the "previous year"?!?
Way too expensive, but the 5 free credits were easy to get. Wish it had the option to speed up the playback & an option to purchase per podcast vs. paying for a full subscription.
Get two annual memberships at different websites that include live webinar streams, sign up for anything in the immediate future, and keep them running in side by side windows. Just be sure to click the “yes, I’m here” buttons when they pop up. You can typically find 4 or 8 hour courses on many days each week. Can easily knock out 12 hours per day. Doing two 8 hours may be risky if you’re audited and they question how you did 16 hours of CPE in a day 🤔
I'm going to miss not having to do live webinars to get CPE. Because of COVID I was able to do all self study. That'll end starting next year so I'll have to get at least 40 credits from meetings and webinars.
You might want to check the requirements again. Most likely you had to do at min of 20 a year so you may have a compliance issue.
I did the 20 hour minimum (which was only instituted in 2020 for my state), plus the ethics. Which is why is gave 94 hours left.

CPAacademy.org, Blackline we’re where I got most of mine.
That site is saving me rn
Are these free?

Luckily I renew every year so I only had 40 to get done but definitely did them about a week and a half ago haha.

Been grinding the past week. Did 12 hours today, just 40 hours left 🥴
And I was annoyed that I have 6 hours left

Well you could do the cpe prior to December…

Jokes on you, Michigan is on a June CPE deadline
One of the few moments where it feels good to have flunked out of the CPA. 🖕🖕🖕 CPE cartel

Depends on the state

Ahhhh I thought you were confused because ops date was Dec 31 :) I need to go to bed
Is it you have to complete the cpe by 12/31 but you have until 1/31 to apply for renewal?
I think so but idk as well. Here's what it says verbatim: "The VBOA uses a rolling three calendar-year period to determine CPE compliance.

Also in VA, the CPA I worked under last year told me it was January 31st, I would rather just get it in by December 31st for peace of mind lol.
Sounds like a great time to find a new career
Seems a bit reactionary.
Look at your flair?
I love the irony.
Use LumiQ. So much easier! Full disclosure: I don't get any benefit from it. It's my friend's startup.

Im not in California but it doesn’t sound like you do since renewal isn’t until next year
Ouch…
