Membership and cop

You can enter your residence Address in your Proff Address column, as It is necessary coz you are Opting for COP & that is the address where Institute will correspond with you as & when required for all matters. Also incase in future as mentioned by you if you get into employment & surrender your COP Your address will remain same as It will be your Residence address for Communication & also for all the Docs & Journals & other publications which ICAI sends us & also the Address on Record. So dont bother on that point & mention your residence Address at Both Resi & proff Address Columns & Go ahead with your Application for Membership & COP. I hope your Query & confusion is clear
