The AICPA has announced that they are seeing success in their efforts to enact a uniform mobility provision in every jurisdiction hat licenses CPA’s. Nearly every state is at some point in the process of considering the concept per a recent email announcement.
Thirty-eight states have passed some form of legislation allowing CPA’s to practice in other states without providing notification, and nine states have mobility legislation pending. It is anticipated that 45 states (out of 55 jurisdictions) could have legislation passed by the end of the 2009 legislative sessions.
This has been a big issue for a while now, and this is good news for CPA’s who at least from time-to-time prepare returns for states other than the one in which they reside.
