    [CAN] CPA Canada's gross incompetence

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 12:19 PM PDT

    In light of the today's extremely vague and utterly disappointing announcement from CPA Canada, having heard no updates for weeks and only half assed apologies, its time we members have our voices heard.

    Candidates deserve a timeline of events, a REAL tentative date in January, and a proper action plan from CPA Canada on how they're solving this issue.
    Candidates REFUSE to be left in the dark waiting for yet another garbage email from CPA/Joy Thomas.

    Candidates spend a significant amount of money, time, and effort per year to be part of professional body that puts its candidates through complete hell and with no consequences, only half assed email apologies and no real timeline or action plan. Day after day, we are left in the dark on what's to be done and what CPA's plans are. Everything they do, is to save their asses with no regard for our personal lives, our anxieties and our careers, and to save them money.
    Clearly, CPA values profit over reputation and respect for the members of their professional organization. This is an EMBARRASSMENT to those currently designated, and for all members of the CPA. Those responsible need to be held accountable.

    *CPA Canada NEEDS to face consequences for this* - I don't know how, but damn it, they do. What they're doing is not enough.

    When candidates are half an hour late to a workshop, the candidate is fined and disciplined. CPA is ruthless, and we should hold them to the same standard.

    SCREW YOU CPA

    Best accounting related insults

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 10:42 AM PDT

    Told my husband today that he was a current liability.

    Followed it up by saying it wouldn't be long before he fell under IFRS5.

    He said he was more of a long term fixed asset, and that i should pipe down unless i wanted some double entry. 🙄🙄

    Made me realise a few things

    1) I'm very lame 2) are there any other good accounting insults/thing to say to people?

    Suggestions please!

    [CAN] Apparently CFE results have been pushed back to January 2020?

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 06:59 AM PDT

    Heard this from someone at a firm. I didn't write this year (wrote in 2016), but I can't even imagine how frustrating this must be for all the writers this year; especially after the whole fiasco that occurred. Anyone know any more about this? I'm assuming it's to some how accommodate for fairly marking the exams despite this mess?

    Do they need a couple months to figure out how to upload the results to their site using WiFi?

    EDIT: Just FYI, this is word-of-mouth knowledge, I can't 100% confirm it. Just wanted to see if anyone knew more about it than me. Hopefully there's more communication soon.

    EDIT: Email has been sent out by CPA confirming this according to comments here.

    Switch from Tax to Audit as a Senior Associate

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 04:56 PM PDT

    Long story short, I am currently a senior tax associate at a mid-tier firm, have been doing tax since college graduation and it's been 4+ yrs , mainly on pass-thru entities. Now I've come to a point and started thinking about the future career. My ultimate goal is to transit to private so I've got 3 options here:

    1. Switch to audit within my current firm. I don't hate tax but I might like audit better. And audit obviously has better exit opportunities. But it also means that I'll have to start over w/ less pay and lower title.

    2. Switch to B4 and do corp tax. Get more exposure to ASC 740 which allows better exit opportunities to F500 companies in the future.

    3. Switch to a F500 companies do tax provision. Very rare opportunities out there for me today and I've heard it's harder to move up the ranks within private.

    If you've had experience like this, please share. Much appreciate.

    CFE results delayed rant

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 09:13 AM PDT

    Just having a mini breakdown over the fact that the CFE results are delayed. It's like picking at a scab that just started to heal.

    I am finding it so hard to plan for next year. I am getting married in June and honeymooning to Europe for a month. If I have to re-write in May, I can't take a month off. I need to book flights around Christmas. Maybe, if I failed, I will just not return and start a new life in Ukraine.

    Difference in summer internships between KPMG and BDO?

    Posted: 25 Oct 2019 02:27 PM PDT

    Edit: tax

    Can anyone tell me about their experiences in these firms for your internships? Specifically what they have you do, how they train you, and how much you got paid (optional)?

    I know that KPMG sends their interns to Orlando, but is it for the whole internship? Actually have no idea about what BDO does
