Changes to how you register with CQC

What registers need to do

If you’ve already submitted your application on the provider portal

• If your application has been validated and accepted by us, you do not need to resubmit it. Your application is now in the queue to be assessed.
• If you’ve applied but you have not received confirmation from us yet, we’ll contact you in the next few weeks to confirm your application has been forwarded for assessment. If there is a problem with your application, we’ll send you instructions on how to resubmit. You will not lose your place in the queue.

If you’ve started your application on the provider portal, but have not submitted it yet

• If you’ve already started to apply using the provider portal, you’ll need to complete and submit your application before 18 November 2024.
• If you think you cannot submit your application before the deadline, we advise you to stop your application on the portal now. Use the form on our website instead.
• Remember, your provider and related registered manager applications are assessed together. This means you’ll need to submit all related applications before the deadline. If any are late, you’ll need to reapply using the Word form for all applications.

If you’ve not started your application yet

We recommend you complete the form and send it to us by email. This will make sure you have enough time to complete your application.
