*Members can pay their dues in installments, as long as their dues are paid in full by the due date. GHAR will not automate payments, so members you are responsible for calling the GHAR office to make them. There is no fee or penalty for paying in installments, as long as the dues are paid in full by the due date.
Don’t forget! You can not apply credits from education to pay your dues!
*RPAC contributions are not deductible for income tax purposes. Contributions to RPAC are voluntary and are used for political purposes. The amount suggested is merely a guideline and you may contribute more or less than the suggested amount. You may refuse to contribute without reprisal and NAR or any of its state associations or local boards will not favor or disfavor any member because of the amount contributed. Seventy percent (70%) of each contribution is used by your state PAC to support state and local political candidates. Until your state PAC reaches its RPAC goal, thirty percent (30%) is sent to National RPAC to support federal candidates and is charged against your limits under 52 U.S.C.§ 30116; after the state PAC reaches its RPAC goal it may elect to retain your entire contribution for use in supporting state and local candidates.
The state portion of dues is $150 per member. PAR computes 5 percent or $7.50 to be nondeductible for the member’s income tax purposes due to PAR lobbying efforts. The national portion of dues is $150. NAR computes 34 percent or $51.00 to be nondeductible for the member’s income tax purposes due to NAR lobbying efforts. The entire $45.00 Consumer Advertising Campaign (CAC) qualifies as fully deductible. Membership dues is not tax deductible as charitable contributions; however, they may be tax deductible under other provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Please seek advice from your tax professional.
