I filled this form,but i have a doubt ,please clarify that .At the bottom notes says i enclose self attested copies of mark list .but no option to attach the self attested copies of marklist

Yes I also filled the form but there is no option to attach the enclosures and when I filled in again it said that application submitted

i filled it a year ago, i didnt remember it, but click on continue button it may be after that step. or if there is no option to upload the marksheets ICAI may have made arrangement for self verification of your marks based on the data you filled in.

After applying for ATC , we are still eligible for becoming CA????

iam a inter student doest not like to quit CA course.....i filled the ATC form and click continue....can i continue the course ......iam afraid please reply....i dont knw the comlplete knowledge aboubt ATC...Plese help me

Accounting Technicain Course (ATC), is nothing but the Certificate you gain, when you passes both group of IPCC. it is just helpful to those who are not continuing with the Finals. further, if you have paid fees for ATC, you can get thet same from online. Thank you

Yes offcourse dear friend you can continue ca final even after getting ATC certificate. I have ATC certificate and i gave my May 15 attempt, (i failed is a different story ;p).

Regarding working as tax consultant, ICAI should have clarified about the powers of ATC holder, but unfortunately ICAI is silent on this. but it is much helpful for those who could not complete CA finals and finding themselves at nowhere on the earth.

We can practice as tax consultant, although it is nowhere written by ICAI. But icai not even restricted to practice as tax consultant. But in society tax consultant is more popular thats why we have to use it. And ICAI will not say it illegal to work like tax consultant when holding ATC certificate.

Its free of cost, no need to attach any Demand Draft.
