All CPAs required to get fingerprinted prior to their next renewal
Fingerprint-Based Background Check - Now Available The fingerprinting instructions and processes are now available to all licensees. You can access your specific fingerprinting status and instructions by logging into Online Services on the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy's website. You will also be reminded to complete the fingerprinting requirement when you receive your annual renewal notice. However, there is no need to wait for your renewal month to complete the fingerprinting process. We encourage everyone to complete this requirement as soon as is practicable.
Texas licensees that currently reside out-of-state or out-of-country will have special instructions to follow and those instructions will also be available through Online Services and annual renewal notices.
