Query form 112

Hi Sajeetha,

Thanks for your question — it's a common situation for CA students pursuing B.Com while doing articleship.

🔹 Background on Form 112:

• Form 112 is required if you’re pursuing any other course (like B.Com) alongside articleship.

• As per ICAI rules, you can pursue one additional course, but it must not clash with articleship timings (i.e., 11 AM to 5 PM).

• If your college is marking attendance (even if you only go for exams), ICAI may treat it as a regular course — so you must clarify the mode of study.

✅ Can You Upload a Letter from the College Principal?

Yes, you can and should obtain a letter from your college principal clearly stating:

• You are enrolled in distance/correspondence mode (or exam-only mode).

• There are no mandatory classes to attend.

• Your presence is only required for examinations, and you are not required to attend regular lectures.

📝 Sample Letter Format (for Principal to Issue):

To Whom It May Concern

This is to certify that Ms. Sajeetha R, a student of B.Com at [College Name], is enrolled under [Correspondence/Private/External] stream.

She is required to appear only for the semester examinations as per the university norms and is not required to attend regular classes.

This certificate is issued on her request for submission to the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI).

Signature
Principal
[College Name & Seal]

🔄 What to Do Next:

1. Get this letter signed and sealed by your principal.

2. Upload it along with Form 112 on the SSP portal.

3. Keep a physical copy for your own records.

⚠️ Note:

Make sure the course timings do not conflict with your articleship schedule, even if the course is in distance mode.

If you need help with drafting a request to your principal, I can help with that too.

Let me know if you want the Tamil version or a draft email.

Best of luck with both your B.Com and CA journey!
