Accountant letter -> Company practice ICAEW code?

[ekta]

Hi All

I have got all the documents to apply for my ILR but just now observed in my accountant letter, there is no company practice certification code.
It has only accountant ICAEW registration number but not accounting company's ICAEW registration number/practice code?

I am not sure if this is required. please please Can you confirm? I am really in a tension as I am about to post my documents.


Cheers

I recently applied with an accountant letter. All it had was the accountancy name, address,registration number. The letter was signed by a CA....dint have his CA registration number as well on the letter (as I beleive it was not required)
No questions asked whatsoever at Solihull PEO, although the originals were taken by the CW - not sure if she cross verified by calling them

Hi db83

I think it is required as guidelines says -

If the earnings were for work done while the applicant was in the UK, such evidence must come from an accountant or accountancy firm in the UK who is a member of one of the following recognised supervisory bodies:
(1) The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW),
(2) The Institute of Chartered Accountants in Scotland (ICAS),
(3) The Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland (ICAI),

My question is my accountant has put his ICAEW registration number but accountancy firm registration number is not there, can some body please confirm if it required?

I have gone through the forum and have found if Accountant is certified and company is not, this should be fine. To be on safer side I have requested for copy Accountant's ICAEW practising certificate.

I hope this should fit in the requirements.

Good luck with your application....I'll be surprised if your accountant gives you the certificate....if he/she does, then that's great

If the accountant is a Member of The Institute of Chartered Accountants England and Wales ie:ICAEW,will be mentioned next to his name. No need of certificate Number or Certificate. Normally Accountants will not give same,like a G.P.
