Hi ozdane
As you mentiond that your ultimate goal is to work in Australia in tax field.
If you do ACCA and become ACCA member you have apply for
CPA Australi membership straight away provided that you have bachelor degree (which you have) as ACCA has MRA with CPA Australia. Please note that ACCA does not currently taking tax paper in australian variant. I therefore advise you to check with CPA Australia regarding this as CAP AUS may require you to take tax paper if you want to be CPA Aus member.
AS i never been to Aus therefore I do not know anything about status of CPA Aus in Aus.
As you mentioned that you r Australian national. I therefore advise you to do CA from Australia which is recognised all over the world, it is my personal recommendation.
CA from Aus after ACCA will be worthless as there is no MRA between ACCA and ICAA and as a result you have to take alomost 80% of ICAA examinations again.
I shall be grateful to you if you kindly advise me that amongt
CA Australia and CPA Australia which qualification is regarded more supereme term of knowledge and job market. I know CPA Austraia can do Audit of plc in Australia.
