Financial Hardship Application

TNP understands that financial hardship can make it difficult for some of our current and lapsed members to pay the fees associated with our membership categories. Your ability to maintain membership with TNP is important to us, our mission, and the future of your profession.

This policy is designed to alleviate pressures in such cases and ensure that our members are treated equitably. It is the policy of TNP to consider requests to waive membership dues as a result of financial hardship on an individual basis. All membership categories, except for Legacy membership, are eligible to request a financial hardship waiver.

For purposes of this policy, a “hardship” is defined as a substantial unexpected and/or unforeseen loss in income. In such cases, a request for financial hardship waiver of membership dues is considered. If approved, a financial hardship waiver may be granted in a manner decided upon by the reviewers reasonably appropriate in relation to the facts and circumstances presented, and for a period not to exceed one (1) year. Subsequent requests for financial hardship waivers shall be considered pursuant to this policy, up to a maximum of three (3) lifetime requests overall.

To apply for membership dues to be waived due to financial hardship.

Membership Dues Renewal & Auto Bill

Memberships are for one year and renewals are based on your join date. Please note that if you are paying via credit card or bank draft, your membership dues will be automatically deducted each year on your renewal date unless you opt out by emailing admin@texasnp.org. The system is set-up to send numerous reminders to you, but if you request a refund after a charge has been made a $10 transaction fee will be assessed.

Membership dues to TNP are not deductible as charitable contributions but may be deductible as a business expense for Federal Income tax purposes. 50% of the membership dues is spent on lobbying.
