NECA/AMF Service Charges
NECA service dues are .5%* of your gross monthly payroll. When you reach 75,000 hours you will receive a 25% discount on your NECA service dues, which will be payable at .375% of your gross monthly payroll. NECA charges will drop to 0% after you have reached 150,000 hours.
*Dues and service charges paid to NECA National are not tax-deductible as charitable contributions for federal income tax purposes. However, they may be deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses subject to restrictions imposed as a result of NECA’s lobbying and political activities as defined by the Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993. NECA estimates that the nondeductible portion of your 2015 dues and service charges – the portion allocable to lobbying and political activities – is 5.2%.
For a listing of the Contracts that contain the AMF language click on the “Members Site” icon and go to Agreements.
AMF [Administrative Maintenance Fund] enabling language is contained in all Chapter Agreements, at .5% of your Gross Labor Payroll. AMF is capped at $3,000,000 in Gross Earnings. After you have reached this amount you no longer need to contribute to AMF.
