Which statement about reimbursement is correct?

• A. Reimbursement is always provided if dues have been paid.
• B. Reimbursement is provided only upon annual audit.
• C. Reimbursement is never considered under any circumstance.
• D. If disaffiliation occurs after dues are paid, reimbursement will not be provided.

Answer: (D)

Reimbursement depends on your membership status and the timing of leaving. Merely paying dues doesn’t guarantee a refund if you later disaffiliate. The policy specifically states that if disaffiliation occurs after dues have been paid, reimbursement will not be provided. This reflects the idea that once you’ve committed funds and then leave, refunds aren’t issued. The other statements conflict with this practice: refunds aren’t automatic just because dues were paid, audits don’t by themselves establish reimbursement, and there isn’t a blanket rule that reimbursements are never considered. The time-of-disaffiliation rule is the one that aligns with how these policies are typically handled.
