Tennessee State Board of Accountancy Proposed Rule Notify
Pursuant to T.C.A. § 4-3-1306(d), you are receiving this notice because you have elected to receive notification by e-mail of certain changes or potential changes to the law applicable to your profession.
On May 5, 2017, the Tennessee State Board of Accountancy considered amending rules affecting Certified Public Accountants and Accounting Firms. These rules were filed with the Secretary of State on February 23, 2018 and are effective as of May 24, 2018. These changes would amend the Tennessee Accountancy Rules and Regulations as follows:
Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. § 0020-01-.01 is amended by changing the definition of “License” to include all certificates, permits or licenses issued by the Board. This rule is also amended to change the definition of “Expired License” by decreasing its designation from one year to six months after the expiration date of a license.
Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. § 0020-05-.04 is amended to clarify the requirement that a person must obtain the Board’s approval for Continuing Professional Education Programs (CPE) courses not specifically authorized by that rule prior to completion of the CPE.
A copy of the rule filing is available for review on the website of the Secretary of State at http://publications.tnsosfiles.com/rules_filings/02-25-18.pdf
If you have any questions or concerns about this new rule, please contact Elizabeth Goldstein at Elizabeth.Goldstein@tn.gov or 615-741-3072.
