While creating the user ID, I am directed to submit a provisional application? Why is it so?

Your identity as a student of ICAI is validated through your ten-digit registration number ( like NRO0123456) , the name of the course, and your date of birth that you had entered while creating the User ID. If these fields do not match with those in the Institute’s database, the system would not provide you User ID and password against the student registration number entered by you.

Instead, the system will allow a login against a system-generated Pxxxxxxxx number for submitting your online exam form. Hence, please ensure that you fill in your student registration number as per the registration letter sent to you.
