22 April 2014 Dear Sir, Recently I hv applied for COP by submitting Form 6 with a cheque of Rs. 2000/- to ICAI. My previous employer has also submitted my resignation to ICAI. but I recd a mail from ICAI that we acknowledged the receipt of Rs. 800 as membership fee associate. and membrr closing balance is Rs 1200. what should I do? Is ICAI has considered my COP? I hv heared from somewhere that we will hv COP from the date we apply for COP. is this correct? Can I sign any document or I have to wait for COP?

23 April 2014 was your associate fees pending? if yes, you should have sent Rs 2800 instead of 2000.

so please check with membership section.

with regards to effective date of COP, it is given with effect from date of the application only if the fees cheque is cleared on time. otherwise, it would be effective only from the date fees is cleared (which most probably shall happen in your case)
