The Final Fee?

I got the email today saying that I've been approved for certification.  I am Texas License number 94,684.  I paid my fee online this evening.  Next week I should get my stuff in the mail and I can officially call myself a CPA.

This Week?

I talked with the people over at the Texas state board last Friday and was told all my paperwork is good and I should be issued a license this week.  This is highly amusing to me since the post office still says the package is undelivered.  That will teach me to spend the extra buck or two on delivery confirmation.

Paperwork

I finished the four hour ethics course this weekend.  It wasn't too bad, although it was pretty dry.  The test at the end was pretty tricky though, but I got enough to get my certificate of completion.  I filled out the exam that I have to submit with the rest of my paperwork.  I then filled out the rest of the paperwork and wrote my $50 application fee.  I got my boss on the accounting side of my job to sign off on my work experience this morning.  All that is left is to head to the post office and hope they deliver it quickly.  I might have a license number in the next 2-3 weeks.

I continue to get emails and such and am answering them as they come in.  Good luck to those that are taking exams in the next month or so.
