(February 21, 2025) - The Texas Society of CPAs’ Professional Standards Committee (PSC) supports the AICPA Professional Ethics Executive Committee's proposed revisions on simultaneous employment with an attest client but recommends clarifications. They suggest specifying the distinction between the "period of professional engagement" and the "period covered by the financial statements" with examples. Additionally, they seek guidance on defining inadvertent breaches and the required timeline for addressing them.
