Unemployment or underemployment
Long-term financial difficulties due to illness or other reasons
Stay-at-home parents or long-term care givers who have temporarily left the workforce
Lack of employer reimbursement/new employer unable to reimburse
Lack of income

To be considered for the Special Circumstance rate, please complete the Special Circumstance form below. You will hear from our member relations team after your request is reviewed. If approved, you will receive a response with your rate at the time of approval (usually within seven business days).

Request Dues Waiver

The PICPA also offers the possibility of a dues waiver for members who experience extreme difficulty and are unable to pay. Dues waiver requests must be approved by the PICPA Board of Directors. If you would like to be considered for a dues waiver, please email membership@picpa.org. The request will be reviewed by the Board at their next scheduled meeting: until that time, your membership will remain in good standing.
