Certificate of service query - ipcc

1099 views 12 replies

I have converted from PCC to IPCC in 2013 (no direct entry) and have already completed my 3.5 years of articleship. I want to apply for May 2017 IPCC exam. Do I have to submit the Certificate of Service? I do not fall under any category of students mentioned in the "Guidelines for IPCE" on ICAIEXAM website regarding the mandatory requirement of submitting the Certificate of Service.

i.e. "I haven't joined/converted to Intermediate(IPC) through Direct Entry Scheme - Graduates/Post Graduates or registered for Intermediate (IPC) course through CPT route and appeared in the Intermediate (IPC) Examination in one or both groups but did not pass any of the group/s and converted to Intermediate(IPC) under the Direct Entry Scheme and commenced practical training".

I tried to call ICAI helpline to get a solution but either their numbers are mostly busy or if it rings, no one picks up the call. I have even sent them an email. They still haven't replied to that.
Please provide an answer at the earliest so that I can submit my form.
Thank you.

In case of IPCC exams only direct entry students need to fill cos. As u haven't ever touch direct entry scheme, so u don't need to fill cos.

I submitted my form. For candidates like me, there was no option to submit the Certificate of Service as it is not required. Thank you for the reply.

But what about student who has not completed articleship ? in my case I submit my form but no option for certificate of service came and the form also accepted with fees so do I need to send form through seed post at Delhi. I completed my 2 years of articleship then to that option not came
@ Sejal, which exam are u applying for ?
Students appearing in IPCC through CPT route don't require cos.
mam I am applying for ipcc group 2 and I completed my 2 years of articleship. so whether it is mandatory certificate of service
CPT or direct entry dear ?
It depends on this
If certificate of service not applicable to my case so whether I have to send form through speed post
I am appearing through CPT route
If it doesn't applicable then why to send form by post. If it's not applicable then it's not needed.
As u are through CPT route then no cos.
Thank you mam
Welcome
Best of luck 👍
