# CPAs in Ellensburg, Washington — 36 in practice > Every certified public accountant licensed by Washington State and on the record in Ellensburg: 36 in practice, with licence numbers and renewal years. Board of Accountancy data, collected 2026-08-21. ## CPAs in Ellensburg **36** certified public accountants are licensed to practise and on the Board’s record in Ellensburg — 0.1% of everyone Washington currently licenses. ### What the address on the record means, and what it does not The Board records one place per licence holder. It is where the Board writes to them — not necessarily where they practise, and not a list of firms in Ellensburg. Someone with a Ellensburg address may serve clients across the state, and a firm in Ellensburg may be staffed by CPAs recorded elsewhere. Read against that limit, the number is still worth something: it says how many people Washington currently licenses with a Ellensburg address, which is the closest a public register gets to the size of the local profession. ### When they renew Washington renews CPA licences **every three years**, between 1 January and 30 April. That splits Ellensburg into cohorts: | Renews by 30 April | CPAs in practice | Share | |---|---|---| | [2027](/renewal/2027.md) | 15 | 41.7% | | [2028](/renewal/2028.md) | 15 | 41.7% | | [2029](/renewal/2029.md) | 6 | 16.7% | The deadline that actually bites is earlier: the 120 hours of continuing education must be complete by **31 December of the preceding year**. [How the three-year cycle works](/renewal.md). ### How long they have been licensed 9 of the 36 CPAs on the record in Ellensburg were first licensed before 2000 — 25.0%. By decade of first licence: | First licensed | CPAs in practice | Share | |---|---|---| | 2020s | 9 | 25.0% | | 2010s | 13 | 36.1% | | 2000s | 5 | 13.9% | | 1990s | 3 | 8.3% | | 1980s | 4 | 11.1% | | 1970s | 2 | 5.6% | ### Board orders None of the 36 licences held in Ellensburg has a Board order published against it. Note what that does and does not mean: the Board has published orders as documents only since 1 January 2020, so an older matter would not show here at all. ### Looking for a CPA in Ellensburg?

The two registers are separate: a firm registration is not a licence held by any person, and the file does not say who works where. 1 of them — 25.0% — are **sole proprietorships**: one person practising under a trading name, with no separate entity behind it. Worth knowing before picturing an office.
