New Member Dues Payment System
Local 130 is proud to introduce our new Member Dues Payment system. This new system will ease the process of paying Window Dues. As you all know, our Parent International, The United Association, currently requires each member to pay $32.00 in Window Dues each month. Failure to pay Window Dues for 3 months will cause a suspension, and a $50.00 late fee will be assessed by the UA. Failure to pay their Window Dues for 6 months will result in a member being expelled requiring payment of a Reinitiation fee, a late fee, and all outstanding Windows Dues amounts owed to become a member again. Local 130 understands that finding the time to pay the required Window Dues can be challenging between work and family life and the intent of this new system is to help all our members stay current and avoid paying unnecessary Late or Reinitiation Fees*.
*If the Reinstatement Fee of ($50.00) is included that means you are suspended due to late payment of your window dues as per the United Association.
These are a few items to be aware of when using the New Member Dues Payment System;
- You must register using your U.A. Card number (6 or 7 digits) as the 'Member Number', your Date of Birth and the last four digits of your Social Security Number. The system will ask you to create a PIN number. You will need this PIN every time you pay your dues online - PLEASE RECORD FOR REFERENCE!
- Use a valid email address when registering. Password resets, if needed, are delivered to this email address only.
- Use the Credit Card billing address zip code, not your home mailing address zip code if they are different. this can happen if you've moved recently.
- Online Balances are updated one business day after your payment. If you make a payment and then check your balance the same day, it will not have changed. If you click the History link, you can verify that your payment was made and registered. DO NOT make a second payment! Payments take 24 hours to process and update your account.
