Selecting A Certified Public Accountant

A Certified Public Accountant (CPA) is a person who has met the requirements of New Jersey state laws and has been issued a license to practice public accounting by the New Jersey Board of Accountancy.

Only persons who are licensed can legally call themselves a Certified Public Accountant.  As practitioners, CPA's provide accounting, auditing, tax, financial planning and management consulting services.

When you choose a CPA we have the following suggestions you may find helpful:

Check the license status from our Web License Search or call the Customer Contact Center at (850) 487-1395.

Specifically, make sure the license is current, and whether there have been any disciplinary actions against the licensee.

Check to see if the licensee has an active license and how long he or she has been licensed

Interview the prospective CPA either by telephone or in person.  A common inquiry is "what type of accounting work do you typically perform?" Compare the CPA's experience to your service needs.

Ask about the office hours of the CPA; determine whether the office is open year round; inquire if the CPA is available to take telephone inquiries.

It is important to make certain before any work is done by the CPA that you receive an engagement letter detailing the work to be performed for you, who will specifically be performing the work, and cost of the services.
