The purpose of IQEX (International Uniform Certified Public Accountant Qualification Examination) is to facilitate the US CPA qualification process for those accounting professionals from other countries whose professional bodies have entered into reciprocity agreements with the US accounting profession. At present, such agreements are in effect with the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA), the Institute of Chartered Accountants (U.K.) , Australian Certified Public Accountants in Australia (ICAA), the New Zealand Chartered Accountants and the Mexican Contadores Publicos. The examination takes place over four and one-half hours and consists of multiple choice questions prepared by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). The examination is offered only in English and is administered as a Computer Based Test (CBT) once a year in September.
CAs will earn 35 hours of PD for their CA license and receive a PD attestation.
