# CPAs in West Richland, Washington — 24 in practice

> Every certified public accountant licensed by Washington State and on the record in West Richland: 24 in practice, with licence numbers and renewal years. Board of Accountancy data, collected 2026-08-21.

## CPAs in West Richland

**24** certified public accountants are licensed to practise and on the Board’s record in West Richland — 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 West Richland. Someone with a West Richland address may serve clients across
the state, and a firm in West Richland 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 West Richland 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 West Richland into cohorts:

| Renews by 30 April | CPAs in practice | Share |
|---|---|---|
| [2027](/renewal/2027.md) | 7 | 29.2% |
| [2028](/renewal/2028.md) | 13 | 54.2% |
| [2029](/renewal/2029.md) | 4 | 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

6 of the 24 CPAs on the record in West Richland were first licensed before 2000 — 25.0%. By decade of first licence:

| First licensed | CPAs in practice | Share |
|---|---|---|
| 2020s | 4 | 16.7% |
| 2010s | 11 | 45.8% |
| 2000s | 3 | 12.5% |
| 1990s | 3 | 12.5% |
| 1980s | 2 | 8.3% |
| 1970s | 1 | 4.2% |

### Board orders

None of the 24 licences held in West Richland 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.

### Registered CPA firms in West Richland

Alongside the 24 individually licensed CPAs, the Board lists **3** registered CPA firms with a West Richland address. 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.

2 of them — 66.7% — are **sole proprietorships**: one person practising under a trading name, with no separate entity behind it. Worth knowing before picturing an office. [What each legal form means](/firm.md).

| Legal form | Firms here | Share |
|---|---|---|
| [Sole Proprietorship](/firm/sole-proprietorship.md) | 2 | 66.7% |
| [Limited Liability Company](/firm/limited-liability-company.md) | 1 | 33.3% |
