I completed my b com ... and have cleared my ca inter and my cs inter ...i m now planning of enrolling myself for cpa .... i found out that the state of califonia has the least requirments ... and i think i wil b able to register from that state ... what i want to know is weather i cna give the exam in any other state ... Sesondly is it necessary to get the licensure ? as in can i m planning of working in India .... so does have the licencure actually matter and if so do i have to do it in the state i register ...
