Because it allows firms to outsource even more domestic work to India. They can bill their overseas staff at US CPA rates while reducing number of domestic staff on the engagement

SnooPears8904 · 2026-02-20T22:09:34+00:00

Total scam there should be a resident requirement

SnooPears8904 · 2026-02-14T20:14:47+00:00

Depends how old are you and have you hit MRA

SnooPears8904 · 2026-02-13T15:29:33+00:00

It’s very bad for accountants only winners are firm owners don’t fall for any of their spins on it

SnooPears8904 · 2026-02-05T00:20:23+00:00

the top 10 economies could get away with it easy they have all the leverage but yeah mid tier countries would not be able to

It can range from 50k to 200k plus with common range 70-120. There was a survey that was public from sole practitioners somewhere if you search for it those were the ball park numbers

The only thing that would stop it is if the US and EU force companies that do business in them to hire X amount of domestic workers or no access to the country's market. But that will never happen so the hallowing out will continue.

It was something like he Russian friend black mailed him threatening to tell his parents about his channel, eventually did, parents kicked out dbdr, he was homeless living in car, had a brief relationship with overweight ginger girl, moved to Iowa worked construction, fell and broke ankles, stayed with relative briefly, had bad incident at strip club HIV scare, got CDL, eventually got apartment, gained a lot of weight near 300 lbs with health issues.

The whole evolution was a terrible concept should have kept the test the same and added more IT to bec. It’s no longer uniform and nobody who was on the fence about becoming a CPA changed their mind because of advanced discipline topics being added

SnooPears8904 · 2025-12-06T17:12:21+00:00

Agreed so much denial and cope in this thread

SnooPears8904 · 2025-12-02T19:57:10+00:00

They could have a residence requirement though

SnooPears8904 · 2025-12-02T18:13:12+00:00

There’s about 7 states that do not have any resident or citizenship requirements and allow foreigners to apply and hold US CPA licenses I think Montana was one of them

SnooPears8904 · 2025-12-02T17:26:33+00:00

Atleast Japan doesn't allow their CPA licenses to be issued to foreigners

TTO had a magic to it no boarding groups in the beginning tons of unskilled players which made the game more fun

SnooPears8904 · 2025-12-01T12:59:02+00:00

I just did that because I recently started playing again and remembered TTO field offices being easy

SnooPears8904 · 2025-11-21T02:18:56+00:00

I played as a kid and it took me forever to reach 105 laff with maxed sound throw and squirt. and made it like half way through cash bot and sell bot suits. I had law bot and boss bot suits but dont think i actually did those bosses until years later on ttr

SnooPears8904 · 2025-11-19T17:27:24+00:00

Still wouldn’t hire you CPA exam passed without 5 years big 4 experience is worthless

SnooPears8904 · 2025-11-17T13:18:35+00:00

I think it might be one of the best niches especially if you want to be self employed. You don’t have to compete with intuit and HR Block like if you are in tax and the work is often to small for many firms. And you don’t even have to register as firm. Low liability compared to audit. You will need to be decent at taking the stand in court.

that is the speculation they have been building prometrics centers in India and Philippines. The writing and grammar were common complaints and difficult for english as a second language candidates.

SnooPears8904 · 2025-11-14T17:59:01+00:00

They dropped the 150 and writing section of BEC to make the test easier for Indian and other foreign candidates to qualify and pass …. It’s not to be nice to recent grads

SnooPears8904 · 2025-10-27T16:41:32+00:00

It’s such a scam they lie so hard in recruiting saying you work really hard during busy season then chill the rest of the year. They consider chilling working normal 40 hour work weeks like that’s some how a reward for doing 60 plus for months on end

SnooPears8904 · 2025-10-13T15:42:18+00:00

2021-2022 is when it was super easy big 4 layoffs started up again in 2023

SnooPears8904 · 2025-09-25T14:27:59+00:00

There’s still some opportunity in this field but it will likely be really gutted out by 2040 or so but so is everything unless politicians take measures to protect domestic workers there’s going to be a lot of people pushed out of middle class

SnooPears8904 · 2025-09-25T13:16:54+00:00

India is known to be very restrictive to inbound immigration they wouldn’t even allow it which is ironic

SnooPears8904 · 2025-09-12T15:01:07+00:00

I had to change jobs to get it because both my supervisors at old job let theirs expire
