Explanation

Since it is the State Society that transmits your national dues to the National Society, both the OLD and NEW State Society Secretaries and the National Staff Registrar must be aware of the transfer and change their records when you transfer.   Your National Number will remain the same.

Be sure your dues are paid for the current calendar year.  You are probably in a Chapter of the OLD State Society and want to join a Chapter in the NEW State Society.  If so please inform the Secretary of your OLD Chapter that you are planning to transfer, but not to take you off the books until the end of the year.   Please inform the Secretary of the NEW Chapter that you are initiating the transfer process.   Obtain the addresses of the Secretaries of your OLD State Society and of your NEW State Society.

Get a copy of the form at the link below.  You may print the resulting filled-in form on 8.5 by 11 paper.  This does NOT have to be special watermarked archival paper; any regular paper will do.  Make a copy for your files.

The Member should...

• place in an envelope addressed to the demitting Society:



• the transfer form



• a check made payable to "Treasurer General NSSAR" for $10.00, for a record copy of his application for the incoming State Society's files, if one is not provided by the member.



• a stamped business envelope with the address of the Secretary of the NEW State Society



• a second stamped business envelope addressed to:
  
  Staff Registrar, NSSAR
  1000 South Fourth Street
  Louisville, KY 40203-3292



• Mail the envelope to the Secretary of the OLD State Society, so that he can fill in the second part of the form and send it on to the Secretary of the NEW State Society.  The NEW Secretary will fill in the third part of the form and send it on to the National Staff Registrar for final processing.

• inform the Secretary of the OLD Chapter that the move has been completed so he can take your name off their membership list.



• inform the Secretary of the NEW Chapter (with a check for Chapter dues for the year) so that he can add you to their membership list.
