YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED 

WHO IS ELIGIBLE FOR SUPPORT?

We support past and present members of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of
England and Wales (ICAEW), ACA students, ICAEW staff members, and the family and
carers of members and students. 

 1. No matter where your career takes you, past and present members of the

    accountancy

    have been an active student within the last three years are eligible for
    caba's services 
 3. Past and present staff members of the ICAEW or caba are eligible for caba's
    services for life, even if you leave either organisation. Please note, for
    former employees, our financial support is only available to those who have
    had five years continuous employment with either organisation 
 4. Family members and carers of either an eligible past or present ICAEW
    member, ACA student or past or present employee of the ICAEW or caba are
    eligible for caba's support. We define a family member as a:

You can find out more about our available support both in the UK and around the

ARE YOUR SERVICES MEANS-TESTED?

If you need financial support, we carry out a means test where we consider
income, expenditure, capital and assets.  

*Please note none of our other services are means-tested. 

I’M AN ACCOUNTANT, BUT NOT A MEMBER OF ICAEW, CAN YOU STILL HELP?

Unfortunately not. We only support past and present ICAEW members, their carers
and their families. If we are unable to support you, where possible we will
point you to help elsewhere.

CABA HAS SUPPORTED ME IN THE PAST; CAN I RECEIVE SUPPORT FROM CABA AGAIN?

We understand that circumstances change. If we’ve helped you in the past there’s
no reason why we can’t help you again. You can contact us at any time. Please
call us if you need our help.
