It details the process for individuals who do not qualify for the Mutual Recognition Agreement, requiring a credential evaluation by NASBA International Evaluation Services (NIES), which costs approximately $225 and can take 6 months to 1 year. Additionally, candidates must satisfy educational requirements, gain one year of experience working under a licensed CPA or LPA, and complete an online Professional Ethics course through the AICPA for $189. The CPA exam process is also described, including an application fee of $100 and a NASBA fee of $743, with the expectation that most individuals will need to retake exams. The total estimated cost is $1,500 with a timeframe of 3 years, subject to change due to potential exam retakes. The guide emphasizes that the timing and cost are approximate and can vary based on individual circumstances and the speed of document submission from issuing institutions.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/idaho-certified-public-accountant-licensing-guide/180336/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/idaho-certified-public-accountant-licensing-guide/180336.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Ezra","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-29","2026-09-02",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":44},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What is the first step for foreign candidates not qualifying for the Mutual Recognition Agreement to get an Idaho CPA license?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"The first step is to have your credentials evaluated by NASBA International Evaluation Services (NIES).
