Who qualifies for a Retired CPA license status?
• You qualify to obtain a “Retired” CPA license if you are 55 years of age or above and are not in the practice of public accounting. Like Inactive licensees, you are released from the CPE reporting requirement, but are still required to renew the license and pay the renewal fee. Although prohibited from performing public accounting services, you may use your CPA designation on letterhead, business cards, resumes, etc., as long as it is accompanied by the word “Retired”.
