CA Registration Process
ICAI has taken a great leap by facilitating online registration of students for all levels. It saves time and effort and also ensures the accuracy of records in the ICAI database. The steps for online registration are as below:
Foundation, Intermediate & Final:
- Go to the ICAI website (www.icai.org) and click on “Course Registration Forms” under the “Students tab” and select Foundation.
- The hyperlink will take you to the Applicant login page and will ask for your UserID and password. In case you are not registered on that portal, you first need to get yourself registered thereby filling in your personal details like your name, contact number, gender, DOB, email, etc.
- After logging in, fill in the required details as per the form (generally forms are divided into 3 levels) so that the registration process can take place.
- After filling the online form, you are required to pay the applicable fees for your course (fee details are given later in this article). Just double-check the details entered by you in the form before making the payment to avoid any inconvenience.
- The system will automatically generate the form after successful payment, which is required to be printed & signed upon and to be submitted to the concerned regional office within 7 days of online registration (along with few other documents, covered later).
- On completion of the successful registration process, the study material will be sent to the candidates through the Centralized Dispatch System (CDS).
- Note: Although ICAI has provided online forms to be filled for registration purposes, the currently online form for CA-Final is taken down due to some unknown reasons. It is expected to be back on the portal very soon. Meanwhile, if you wish to register, you can do so by printing physical form and filling & submitting that.
Last date of CA registration:
Exams for all levels of CA happens to be twice a year i.e. May and November. The deadlines to register for these exams are as below:
- CA Foundation: The last date for registering yourself for the CA Foundation exam for May attempt is the 31st December of the prior year, and for November attempt is 30th June of the same year. Hence, students who wish to appear for the CA Foundation exam in May 2020 should get themselves registered by 31st December 2019.
- CA Intermediate: The last date for registering yourself for CA Intermediate for May attempt is 1st September of the prior year and for November attempt is 1st March of the same year. This is to leave a time frame of 8 months for students to prepare for the exams.
- CA Final: There is no such last date for CA Final registration, one just needs to apply for CA Final registration prior to filling out an examination form.
