ICAI allows CA September 2026 exam form correction online through its official SSP (Self-Service Portal) at eservices.icai.org — students can edit exam centre, medium of paper, and group or paper exemption selections within a short correction window expected to open around July 3, 2026.
Spotting a mistake after submitting your CA exam form online is stressful, but ICAI provides a dedicated correction facility after the registration deadline closes. This window is brief — typically 2 to 5 days — and lets you fix operational errors before your admit card is generated. Acting quickly and knowing exactly which fields you can change helps you resolve issues without contacting ICAI separately.
- Form correction is done on the ICAI SSP portal (eservices.icai.org) using your existing login credentials.
- Correctable details: exam centre, medium (English or Hindi), exam group, and paper exemption selections.
- Details locked after submission: name, date of birth, registration number, and exam level (Intermediate or Final).
- The correction window is expected to remain open for approximately 3–5 days from July 3, 2026 — act as soon as it opens.
- Standard corrections carry no additional fee; exam centre changes may attract a fee as per the official ICAI notification for this cycle.

What is ICAI CA September 2026 Form Correction?
ICAI’s form correction facility is a short post-submission window that lets you amend specific details in your CA exam application before the admit card is generated. It is not a fresh registration — it is a targeted edit for genuine mistakes made during online form submission.
For the CA September 2026 exam cycle, ICAI is expected to open the correction window in early July 2026, shortly after the last date for form submission. The facility runs through the same SSP portal used for the original application. Changes made during this window directly reflect on your admit card, so review every correction carefully before saving it.
