Hi,
I'm planning to take the CSA test in January and I have a voucher that expires in February. Should I claim and schedule the date now, or can I do it on the same day I plan to take the exam?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hello @Fatemeh Rahimi
You can do the either way, schedule it now or on the same day. You need to give this test in centers so it's good to schedule it few days before the test date, to avoid last minute rush and get the seat availability in your nearest centre.
If I was able to help you please hit like and mark it as an accepted solution.
Thank you

It's best to schedule the exam now, especially since you’ll need time to study and prepare. Waiting until the last minute might lead to stress or the possibility of having to reschedule, and you don't want to risk missing the expiration of your voucher.
All the Best!!

You can claim voucher and schedule your exam in near future. No issue in that and what I guess if you want to appear on any exam center then it should be done 48-72 hours before exam so you can't do it same day. rest you can check CSA guidelines and https://www.webassessor.com/SERVICE_NOW. As after your exam schedule they will send you authorization code etc so better to do it at least 2-3 days in advance rather than on same day.

Since you are planning to take the exam in January, be aware you can't schedule the exam between Jan 8 - 14, and from Jan 15, you will be sitting the new Xanadu version. (See attached screenshot from the Webassessor website.)

Personally, I prefer to hold off scheduling the exam until I know I'm ready. I find that to be the less stressful approach, but I appreciate everyone is different 🙂

Hi @Fatemeh Rahimi ,
i would recommend you to schedule it now. Both to ensure availability of the date, but also to set a target date for your self.
