Repeated from previous post:
"BALPA subscriptions are 0.5% of salary for the first year. For a Captain on £62k a year that is £310 per annum.
But 67% of BALPA subscriptions are tax deductible, so 67% of annual subscription, £207.70 gets added to your tax code; i.e. the amount you are allowed to earn before taxation starts.
That leaves an annual subscription of £102.30, or £8.53 a month."
IPA/IPF membership is:
£12 to join, £6 monthly thereafter.
12 x £6 = £72
+ £12 joining fee = £84.
£84 / 12 = £7 a month IPA/IPF membership.
To my knowledge the IPA/F are not recognised by the Revenue as a trade union therefore not eligible for tax relief on membership fees.
BALPA membership is £1.53 more per month than the IPA/F, less than one sector payment. What is all this twaddle about BALPA being too expensive
