Answer 1 :
yeah
Answer 2 :
Yes. As long as you have your certificate/degree.
Answer 3 :
Yes, that's possible. I'm an accountant in practice and I keep getting emails from accountants in India who say if we email books and records to them, they'll do the accounts cheaply and we can charge the clients. You could do that from Turkey just as well
Answer 4 :
My friend is a CPA and she does all her work from home.
Answer 5 :
absolutely - I often don't go into the client's office. Of course, at some stages you will need to be there because of the actual paperwork - invoices etc - which will need checking etc. I'd advise you get a portable office - I use an Iomega 80 gb USB plug and play storage disc. It's the size of a Hamlet cigar box and fits into the back pocket but you can keep huge files on it. All you then need is a computer to plug it into when you visit your clients.
Answer 6 :
Yes as long as you have acurrent certification
Answer 7 :
I wouldnt think so,do you really think people are going to send important documents in the post to a foreign country and have personal details layed about someones home.wake up
Answer 8 :
yes, you just need a big room for your office, but you have to reg with local authority.....they might charge you business rates, but you get all your bills, set against proft......better to find a cheap office for about 40-00 aweek, then you will have more time with the family.....
Answer 9 :
No reason why not. You would have to get your clients' permission to take the books out of the country. Once they have agreed to this you would have to ensure that you are not breaking any financial rules in Turkey, You would also have to meet all the requirements of being registered to practise accountancy and prepare books of accounts which would be acceptable and follow the international accounting standards and financial reporting rules.
