I made a small (think its serious though) mistake in the Form 108. I erroneously entered more number of weeks experience in the report of Work done section (Auditing, Taxation, Consultancy etc). Almost 40 weeks extra, i.e. 168 weeks instead of 130 weeks actually served. Just wanted to know whether it will cause any problem. Will the Institute tabulate the same and go for scrutniny of the same? I sent the form yesterday. In case of any problem please suggest a possible remedy. My Boss is agreeable to send a revised Form 108 with a covering letter of the Firm to the Institute if that can solve the problem. Please help!!!!!

THERE ARE NO SPECIAL RULES BY ICAI FOR SUCH ISSUES. THE COMMON LAW SAYS A REVISED FORM SENT BY YOUR BOSS WITH COVERING LETTER WILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR THE ICAI TO TAKE ON RECORD ,THE NEW FORM AND REVISED DETAILS. PL. KEEP THE ICAI ACKNOWLEDGEMENT CAREFULLY FOR ANY FUTURE REFERENCE. AFTER SENDING THE REVISED FORM AND COVERING LETTER BY YOUR BOSS, YOU CAN ALSO CALL UP AND TALK TO ICAI -STUDENT -HELP DESK AT DELHI.

No need to file revise details till you receive letter of explanation. You have to reply to the questions asked by ICAI if any. Answer that you committed an error. There is no provison of filing revised 108. The Act is very clear. You have to file that form only once. Note: ICAI is student friendly and hence will help you.

In my office same case had happened and had received a letter and clarification was given. i.e. error in counting. It was cleared. You cannot file the revised form unless ICAI specifies.
