It is ISEA's belief that shortly after the legislative session begins, the Iowa Legislature will restrict or eliminate our ability to use payroll deduction as a payment option. This action has taken place in other states and is a direct attack on your voice in education. We are asking you to make this conversion as a sign that our voice will be heard and we will not be silenced by political games.
Many Local Associations throughout the state have already successfully converted their Dues payments to EFT. We are providing several options for EFT that are new. The dates and options were chosen in an attempt to match the majority of pay options for our members.
The EFT Authorization Form can be found at the bottom of this webpage, as well as a Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) information sheet.
Your choices for EFT are the following:
1. A single monthly payment (from October to July - 10 payments total) on the 1st, 15th, or 20th of each month
2. A bi-monthly payment (20 total payments) on the 1st, 15th, or 20th
3. An annual Credit Card Payment (October 15th)
4. An annual Check payment sent in from your local in October of each year.
We need these forms returned to your local representative ASAP as we are converting thousands of members in a short time.
Thank you for all you do for the kids on Cedar Rapids and for our members.
