National Dues: $45.00 per member, payable to
“Treasurer General NSDAR,” must be added to to
dues invoicer electonically or mailed to National
and postmarked before December 1st.
NATIONAL SOCIETY BYLAWS concerning
dues for new members:
Article IV. Fees and Dues. SECTION
1. (d), “Dues for a member admitted or
reinstated on or after July 5 shall be
credited for the upcoming dues year, which
begins December 1.”
State Dues: $7.50 per member as of your December
1, 2024 count, payable to “ISDAR” and postmarked
before December 1.
Life members and new members after July 5 are
prepaid on the National level but not at the State
level. For Life Members, the chapter will receive
a $10 credit on its National dues invoice, of
which $7.50 is due to the State. New members
will be included on your final dues invoice and
their $7.50 payment is expected with other chapter
dues. Please submit a copy of your national dues
invoice with your payment so I can verify that
dues are paid for the correct members.
The ISDAR Cash Contribution form must be
postmarked before December 1st. Please
remember to keep a copy for your records as your
chapter regent will need this to fill out the
ISDAR Cash Contribution “worksheet” for her
Regent’s Report and in preparing your chapter’s
ISDAR Chapter Achievement Award form. This
check is payable to “ISDAR.” Please send separate
checks for dues and cash contributions.
The President General’s Project assesses $2.50 per
member per year for each of the three years of the
President General’s term. The official
assessment is based on your membership count as of
January 1, 2024.
At the end of your Chapter’s Fiscal Year:
The Chapter Fiscal Report form must be completed
by each chapter and sent to the State Treasurer at
the completion of your chapter fiscal year as
determined by the IRS. If your chapter has
filed its own 990-N E-filing, please attach a copy
of the IRS acceptance response with your Chapter
Fiscal Report form. You can email or “snail
mail” this information. There is a box at
the bottom of the Chapter Fiscal Report form to
check if you would prefer the State Treasurer to
file your 990-N E-file. This report is a
requirement of the IRS to verify your chapter’s
tax-exempt status. Those chapters that own
real estate property will not file the 990-N
E-file form, but will need to contact me for
instructions on tax filing. Chapters that
have received large grants also need to contact me
to make sure you are filing the correct tax form.
A copy of the “Guide for Chapter and State
Treasurers” and all necessary forms can be found
on the National Members’ Web Site: https://www.dar.org/members/state-chapter-finances/guide-chapter-and-state-treasurers
or on the Iowa Society’s Members’ Website (http://www.isdar.org/members).
Please contact me by phone or email with any
questions.
