How much CPE does a Nevada CPA need?
40/yr. Here is what Nevada CPAs should know for renewal:
- Total hours: 40/yr
- Reporting cycle: 1 year (annual)
- Annual minimum: 40
- Ethics: 2 hrs/yr general ethics (NAC 628.210)
- Renewal timing: Renews Dec 31 annually
- Other key rules: 8 hrs A&A in any attest year; first renewal exempt.
Tip: Nevada accepts general professional ethics from a NASBA-registered sponsor. Keep your certificates and records after each course.
Who this applies to
