CPA-AUS OR USA
Hi,
I have finished my CMA (IMA). Currently I am working in the Gulf. I want to check-CPA(Aus) or CPA(USA)-which one is more beneficial and why? We cant appear in CPA(USA) from Dubai but for CPA(Aus) it is possible-correct?

You may be eligible to become an Australian CA based on mutual recognition if you meet some additional requirements, eg having a license to practice in a U.S. state.

I don't think Aus CPA would be of any benefit to becoming an Australian CA. But if you were going to be living just in Australia that would not be much of a problem as CPA would normally be enough.

Dear All,
Considering the cost involved in doing CPA(USA), what is the next best alternative (Except CA). Any suggestions?
Thanks

COST OF US CPA - Dhs. 33,000 - 45,000 ( 45 if you buy study mat from more than 1 source ).
US CPA cost includes Study Mat + Exam + Membership + Travel & US Stay for Exam .
If you intend to use CPA Aust. in US then you need to pass only the US IQEX This, only if you had completed your Bachelors / Graduation from Australia ; else, you have to attempt all 4 papers - AICPA Guidlines.
