The application fee and the first twelve months of national dues are included with the $60 initial payment which must accompany your completed application. (Note that pro-rated dues will be due in December of the application year which will cover the unpaid balance of the next full calendar year.) Annual renewals for national membership are $45 and are due at the end of each calendar year for the following year. Your State Society and Local Chapter may also have annual dues in addition to the national dues. National life memberships are also available.
