[h=2]Applying for concessionary rates[/h] The process of application for concessionary subscription rates is very straightforward and involves providing a statement in writing (via post or email) and/or sending in a copy of your annual P60, Job Seekers allowance statement etc. This process has already been in place for a number of years with the previous subscription structure and has been taken up by members whose circumstances qualify.
You may want to apply for a concessionary rate for a number of reasons.
For example, you may be an Associate (AIfA) member of the Institute and expected to pay an annual fee of £150. But if you are employed in a post that has PIfA-level responsibility and pay, you would then be able to apply for a reduction in your subscription fee to the rate paid by a PIfA member (£110).
If you are earning less than the PIfA recommended minimum salary then you can apply for a further reduction to the PIfA concessionary rate of £67.
If you work part-time you would also be eligible for a concessionary rate if your income does not meet the relevant recommended scale - as outlined above you would need to provide details of your income.
The subscription rate for those who are not currently in employment will be £20.
