General Information
Action Summary The Virginia Board of Accountancy has not made significant revisions to 18VAC5-22 since their adoption in 2010. The regulations establish the necessary requirements to assure continued competency, to prevent deceptive or misleading practices by licensees, and to enforce Chapter 44 of Title 54.1. On September 25, 2018, the VBOA began a periodic review of the regulations and concluded that amendments were needed. The intent of this planned regulatory action is to explore amendments to the regulations, in order to ensure the regulations (i) are protective of public health, safety, and welfare; (ii) address changes in statutes, and professional standards; and (iii) clarify and codify longstanding agency policies.
