US-CPA-exam-in-India-every-month-from-2021

We’ve been there in this pandemic and have many concerns. Despite these uncertain situations, NASBA, AICPA, and Prometric announced good news for all the CPA aspirants: Testing for CPA Exam candidates at test centers in India will begin on January 1, 2021. Also, the candidates may begin to use the scheduler on November 2, 2020.

The CPA aspirants can take the exam sections without restrictions, other than waiting to receive scores from prior attempts of the same section or when there is a major change to the exam. Continuous Testing will replace the existing limited CPA Exam Testing Window model, which only permits candidates to test in India during designated time frames.

The 55 U.S. Accountancy Boards support the move to continuous testing in India. This shift to a continuous testing model in India signifies the power of alignment among state boards, NASBA, AICPA, and Prometric as these organizations continue to support Exam candidates on their journey to CPA. Candidates are asked to visit NASBA’s website to confirm that their Board of Accountancy has transitioned to the Continuous Testing model. 

The agenda behind conducting the US CPA exam in India is to avoid international travel for the Indian CPA aspirants in this uncertain time. The decision helps the Indian students to ease the burden of traveling to countries like Dubai, the United States, for writing the CPA exam.
