Frequently Asked Questions ?

‘US CPA’ (Certified Public Accountant) is a highly sought-after designation because not only is it recognized in most countries around the globe – including the US, Canada and Australia but also because experienced US CPAs tend to climb the corporate ladder relatively easily due to the practical & industry-focused content of the US CPA curriculum.

The scope of US CPA (Certified Public Accountant) in India is primarily focused on international accounting and finance roles. US CPAs are sought after by multinational corporations, audit firms, and financial institutions operating in India for their expertise in U.S. GAAP and international accounting standards, as well as their ability to navigate complex financial regulations and compliance requirements.

US CPA Course has a usual run-time of 1 year i.e. 12 months for most people. If you are a full-time student, you may be able to complete the US CPA training & exams in less than a year. For working professionals who may not be able to dedicate study time on a daily basis, completing US CPA can take up to 18 Months or 1.5 years.

Starting Jan 1, 2024, the US CPA exam follows a 3+1 pattern i.e. 3 core subjects and 1 elective specialization. The core US CPA subjects are 1. AUDIT & ATTESTAION; 2. US TAX REGULATION & BUSINESS LAWS; 3. FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING & REPORTING.

The average starting salary for US CPAs in India is INR 8-10 LPA, based on US CPA License Application status, location and employer.

UWorld CPA Excel is an Approved US CPA Study Material, as is the Beckers US CPA Package & Review. Both have the similar content of equal quality. However, while Becker’s in India comes with limited access only, whereas WILEY comes with unlimited access as standard. This means with Beckers there are hidden charges for renewal fees everytime your access needs to be renewed. But with WILEY, you own the US CPA study materials till you become a US CPA, with no renewal fee/hidden charges and automatic over the air updates for future syllabus changes. Given these facts WILEY is clearly the wiser choice.
