[QUOTE="Frunobulax, post: 660169, member: 27202"] Take a look at the Local 705 language excerpted below. As I read it--and I glanced at it quickly--for seasonals there appears to be a retroactivity clause; i.e., a mechanism for backdating the withdrawal 90 days. printable page April 1, 2009 - 2:51pm — Administrator Request for Withdrawal If you are not working within the jurisdiction of Local 705, you may pay dues for up to 6 months following your last employment with an employer represented by Local 705, or you may take a Withdrawal Card. A member who is off work because of Workers Compensation, Disability or any other leave of absence from their employer may take a withdrawal card for the months the member is not working as long as the members dues and fees are paid through the month the member last worked. If you are gonig to be off less than one full month, you should not take a withdrawal. If you work one day in the month you owe for the whole month. It is the responsibility of the member to make the request for a withdrawal in writing and to notify the union office when he/she returns to work. If a member returns to work and fails to notify the union of their return, the member will be back billed to their month of return when the Local 705 office is made aware that they have returned to work. A member on Workers Compensation or Disability may continue to pay dues while they are off as long as their employer carries them on their roster or their case is pending. If a case is resolved and the member does not return to work, He/She must request a withdrawal. If a member is placed on withdrawal one month and returns to work the next, there will be no gap in the member’s dues/fees and the withdrawal card will be voided. If you work in a seasonal industry, you may take a withdrawal card for the months you are not working. If a Member takes a withdrawal card, it is considered a break in time for the 24 consecutive months in good standing required for eligibility to run for union office. In all cases your dues must be paid through the last month worked to be eligible for a withdrawal card. Withdrawal cards may not be back dated more than 90 days. When you return to work, you must return your withdrawal card and your dues will resume the month you return to work. Some employers may also require a new payroll deduction authorization card. If you would like a withdrawal card, please complete the following and return this form by clicking on the submit button at the bottom of the form. Mail back*your current Local 705 Membership ID card along with payment for any outstanding dues/fees. [/QUOTE]
