On January 23, 2020, the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) approved the California Board of Accountancy’s proposed nonsubstantive changes to sections 15.1, 16, 19, and 20, Title 16 of the CCR, in light of the recent passage of AB 1521 (Low) (Chapter 359, Statutes of 2019).  Specifically, the regulations update six of CBA’s forms to add a field for applicants and license renewals to provide their respective email addresses, now required by the new law, to facilitate quicker communication with licensees.
