Lvl 4 done, AAT finished!

TyJac

I received confirmation that I have finally completed my AAT qualification, having just recently finished my ICAS project - thanx to those who have assisted me on that project.

I'm going to self-study ACCA qualification now.

Is there any point of me even continue to pay membership fee for AAT qualification because I'm going to be a member of ACCA?
I mean even if I don't pay membership fee for AAT, I still can look for a job stating that I have completed the qualification.

I dunno how the fees work but CONGRATS!!

Congratulations TyJac.

Seems you are on the same path as me. Now that you have passed AAT you will become an affiliate member. I suppose it's only worth staying a member if you're looking to become a full member. It's something I will be considering too come renewal time.

Good luck with your ACCA studies.

I am in the same position, just sent my application to ACCA today - after being told that I have passed my final unit ICAS subject to internal verification. I am going to try and do F4 with Bpp distance online (the one with the lectures) from March.

I haven't yet applied for a membership with ACCA because I'm waiting for my certificate to be sent to me, so I could apply for exemptions. I remember reading up on this forum, saying that we don't need to pay exemption fees, is this true? I'm planning to take F4 and F5 this June. Initially was also going to do F6 also, but realised that due to my work, I've very limited time to study.

You can register as an ACCA student (£79)before you get your certificate. You cannot apply for exemptions till you get your lvl4 certificate.
They told me we have to pay exemptions - its on the ACCA website - there is a fee per exam look here :- http://www.accaglobal.com/content/da...-userguide.pdf
http://www.accaglobal.com/gb/en/qualifications/apply-now.html#examentryfees its £69 per paper.

Yes, you do have to pay the exemption fees. I ranted and raved to them on the phone but it was no good. It's an 'admin' fee apparently. My exemptions fees were £192.
