Please note that you cannot make an exam reservation until after you have completed your application, paid your examination fee, and received notification from the PayrollOrg that you are authorized to take the exam. Any candidates who do not submit an application before taking a certification exam may be subject to sanctions, including disqualification of status, upon audit.
Candidates must use their full legal name (First and Last) as it appears on their primary government ID that will be used for admittance to the examination area at the testing center. Please note that Middle Name is not required for testing.
