Prorating Schedule
CBIA fees are based on your Connecticut payroll and administered on a calendar-year basis. A member's initial fee, therefore, is prorated based upon the time of year membership begins.
First -year charges:
1st quarter (Jan., Feb., March) — 100%
2nd quarter (April, May, June) — 75%
3rd quarter (July, August Sept.) — 50%
4th quarter (Oct., Nov., Dec.) — 100% ( includes following year's fee)
Tax Deductibility
For federal income tax purposes, CBIA membership dues are deductible as business expenses, not as charitable contributions.
Lobbying expenses are not deductible for federal tax purposes. Approximately 36% of dues is used by CBIA for lobbying activities, including grassroots advertising. This portion of your dues is therefore not tax deductible.
Dues, once paid are not refundable. Your membership fee includes one subscription to CBIA News. Additional subscriptions may be obtained by contacting CBIA.
Associate Membership
Certain nonprofit organizations qualify for associate membership at a reduced rate. To learn more, call Joe Dias at 860-244-1118 or e-mail joe.dias@cbia.com.
