MyCPA Options for Account Access:

You may already have a MyCPA user account if you have used MyCPA for WebFile.

Accessing More than one Account:

You can register once for the MyCPA Secure Portal and establish access for as many vendor (or taxpayer) IDs as needed. It is not necessary to create a User ID for each company account.

Access for More than one User ID:

More than one company representative can establish access to the same vendor or taxpayer account with a MyCPA login. (Vendors will use the RG# provided at the end of registration to set up additional users.) However, we highly recommend that one individual be responsible for updating your vendor profile.

How to Register as a Texas Vendor

Apply for CMBL or HUB

To register for the CMBL to be a state vendor or to apply for HUB certification, just follow these steps and get started.

Please note: The CMBL annual registration fee is $70.00. Registration payment may be submitted online with a credit/debit card or check debit (US addresses only). Or, vendors may mail payments, if preferred.

  • Create your own unique user ID for the MyCPA Secure Login Portal (requires at least seven characters including numbers and case-sensitive letters).
  • Enter your e-mail address.

Step 2: Create your MyCPA user profile

This will include your name, telephone number, password and a security question and answer (minimum 5 characters). Please keep your information current. This will enable the Comptroller’s office to provide you with the best customer service.
