<p class="MsoNormal">EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY, in order to
eliminate a conflict in the Extended Validation Guidelines
between the definition of Accounting Practitioner in Section 4
(Definitions) mentioning "country" and the specific
requirements for verifying the status of Accounting
Practitioners in 11.10.2(1)(A) which does not, and to clarify
the requirement, we propose amending section 11.10.2 as
follows:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">DELETE <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">(A) Status of Author: The CA MUST verify
that the accountant letter is authored by an independent
Accounting Practitioner retained by and representing the
Applicant (or an in-house professional accountant employed by
the Applicant) who is a certified public accountant, chartered
accountant, or has an equivalent license within the
Applicant’s Jurisdiction of Incorporation, Jurisdiction of
Registration, or the jurisdiction where the Applicant
maintains an office or physical facility. Verification of
license MUST be through that jurisdiction’s member of the
International Federation of Accountants (IFAC) or through the
regulatory organization in that jurisdiction appropriate to
contact when verifying an accountant’s license to practice in
that jurisdiction.<o:p></o:p></p>

the Applicant maintains an office or physical facility.
Verification of license MUST be through the member
organization or regulatory organization in the Accounting
Practitioner’s country or jurisdiction that is appropriate to
