To access the online renewal, the
licensee will navigate to nccpaboard
.gov and click on the renewal link in
the "How Do
Г
box on the right side of
the home page. Any browser may be
used to complete the online renewal.
NOTE: To keep a copy of the infor¬
mation submitted during the renewal
process , the licensee must print each
page of the online renewal after pro¬
viding the required information, but
before clicking the “submit” button.
On the "Licensee Log-In" page, the
licensee will enter his or her Social Se¬
curity number and North Carolina CPA
certificate number and click “submit.”
If the Social Security number and
certificate number entered match the
information in the Board’s records,
the first page of the online renewal,
“Pertinent Data on File,” will display.
This page of the renewal pertains
to the licensee’s contact information,
concentration area, occupation area,
job title, and AICPA and/or NCACPA
membership information.
Each licensee must provide the
Board with a complete address, in¬
cluding business name, mailing ad¬
dress, email address, and telephone
number.
If a complete mailing address is
not provided, the licensee will not be
allowed to continue with the renewal.
To update an address, the licens¬
ee must click on the blue highlight¬
ed "edit" link to change each type of
address (mailing address, home ad¬
dress, or practice address).
If a licensee is using his or her
home address or business/practice
address as the mailing address, he
or she does not need to list the same
address in two categories (such as
mailing address and home address
or mailing address and practice ad¬
dress).
The name, address, and telephone
number entered in the "Mailing Ad¬
dress” section of the renewal will
be publicly available on the Board’s
website in the “Licensee Search."
If a licensee does not want his or
her home address and phone number
to display on the Board’s website, he
or she must select the business/prac¬
tice address as the mailing address.
