Auto-Payment Terms & Tax Information
*Auto payments plans include a $2.50 service charge per transaction which is included in the amount. SCHPBA reserves the right to cancel or refuse auto payments option based on credit history with the Association. Credit card payments will auto renew unless specified by the member.
For U.S. federal income tax purposes membership dues may be deductible as business expenses, not as charitable contributions. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 requires HPBA to inform each member that an estimated, 19.02 % of dues in 2020 will be allocable to lobbying expenditures as defined by the Act and therefore are not deductible as business expenses.].
