Licence Cancellations and Expiries
Check Licensing Status
Use the following links to verify a member’s or a firm’s licensing status, or to confirm the type of licence held. Each link includes details about the services permitted under that licence type.
Licence Cancellation
A member licence can be voluntarily cancelled at any time during the year or upon expiry (December 31 annually) if the member no longer issues assurance or compilation engagement reports in Saskatchewan or it can be cancelled through regulatory processes.
When a firm no longer has any licensed members, its licence will be cancelled. Firms may also need to adjust their licensing tier (e.g., from comprehensive to specified or compilation) if no member holds the corresponding licence.
Regulatory Cancellations
Under Regulatory Board Rule 333.18, a member licence may be cancelled by the Registrar if:
(a) The licensed member is suspended or ceases to be registered;
(b) The licensed member dies or becomes incapacitated;
(c) The licensed member does not renew its licence;
(d) The licensed member voluntarily cancels their licence by submitting in writing a request for cancellation including a declaration that the licensed member has ceased to practice professional accounting.
Under Rule 333.19, a firm licence may be cancelled if:
(a) The firm is suspended or ceases to be a registered firm of the Institute;
(b) The firm no longer has a licensed member;
(c) The licensed firm voluntarily cancels their licence by submitting in writing a request for cancellation including a declaration that the licensed firm has ceased to practice professional accounting.
The Professional Practice Committee may also cancel a licence for reasons not listed above.
Public Disclosure
All licence expiries and cancellations—whether voluntary or through regulatory processes—must be published and made publicly available as required by our Rules.
