10 July 2024 To restart your CA articleship with a new CA firm after a break of 10 years, you will need to follow a few procedural steps. Here’s a detailed outline of the procedure, including steps related to the SSP (Student Services Portal):

### Step-by-Step Procedure:

1. **Visit the SSP Portal:**
- Log in to the SSP Portal (Student Services Portal) using your login credentials. If you don’t have the credentials or they are outdated, you may need to reset your password or contact the ICAI (Institute of Chartered Accountants of India) helpline for assistance.

2. **Check Your Registration Status:**
- Once logged in, check your registration status. Since your status is showing as lapsed, it indicates that your previous registration might need to be reactivated or updated.

3. **Reactivation Process:**
- If there is an option to reactivate your registration directly on the SSP Portal, follow the instructions provided. Typically, there might be a form or a process outlined for reactivation.
- If there is no specific form visible, you may need to visit the nearest ICAI branch or regional office to initiate the reactivation process. They will guide you on the necessary steps and forms required.

4. **Update Personal Details (if necessary):**
- Ensure all your personal details on the SSP Portal are up to date. This includes contact information, address, and any other relevant details.

5. **Select a New CA Firm:**
- Identify a CA firm where you wish to restart your articleship. Contact the firm directly to inquire about vacancies for articled assistants.

6. **Obtain Consent from New CA Firm:**
- Once a CA firm agrees to take you on as an articled assistant, they will need to provide their consent. This is usually in the form of an acceptance letter or form, acknowledging that they are willing to train you as their articled assistant.

7. **Submit Form 109 (Articleship Registration):**
- Form 109 is typically used for registering articleship. However, since you mentioned it’s not visible on the SSP Portal, you may need to obtain this form from the ICAI regional office or download it from the ICAI website.
- Fill out Form 109 accurately with all required details, including the new CA firm’s details and your personal information.

8. **Submit Documents:**
- Attach necessary documents along with Form 109, which may include your previous articleship completion certificate (if available), consent letter from the new CA firm, and any other documents as required by the ICAI.

9. **Payment of Fees (if applicable):**
- Check if there are any fees associated with the registration or reactivation process. Pay the fees online through the SSP Portal or through the designated payment modes as specified.

10. **Submission and Approval:**
- Submit Form 109 along with all supporting documents to the ICAI either physically at the regional office or through the SSP Portal (if applicable).
- Wait for approval from the ICAI. This process may take some time, so monitor the SSP Portal for any updates or communications from the ICAI.

11. **Start Articleship:**
- Once your Form 109 is approved and your registration is confirmed, you can commence your articleship with the new CA firm as per the terms agreed upon.

### Notes:
- **SSP Portal Issues:** If you encounter any issues with the SSP Portal or if certain forms are not visible, contact the ICAI helpline for technical support.
- **Reactivation Duration:** The reactivation process may vary in duration depending on the ICAI’s processing time and any additional requirements.
- **Documentation:** Ensure all documentation is complete and accurate to avoid delays in the registration process.

By following these steps diligently and staying updated with the SSP Portal and ICAI guidelines, you can successfully restart your CA articleship with a new CA firm.
