Memberships are processed on a daily basis
New Members
New memberships begin the month that payment is processed and expire the following year on the last day of the same month. Members receive a full 12 months of membership benefits. A typical new member record will look like this:
Join Date: September
First Issue: November JOURNAL
Expiration: End of September
Last Issue: October NAEA NEWS
Renewing Members
When renewals are received on or before the expiration date, membership is extended one year from the original expiration date. A typical renewing member record will look like this:
Expiration: September
Renewal Payment Received: August
New Expiration Date: September
Lapsed Memberships
Members remain in NAEA records as inactive for one year past their expiration date. During this time, members receive no benefits but they do retain their Membership I.D. number and maintain their initial join date if they renew before the expiration of this one year period. Those who rejoin past the one year period are treated as "new" members and are assigned new I.D. numbers and new initial join dates. Maintaining an initial join date is important for members to receive benefits that relate to longevity of membership. Lapsed memberships cannot be made retroactive.
