Annual Registration Renewal invoices were emailed to registrants the week of November 20, 2017 – thank you to all of the architects, associates and firms who have already paid their fees. To date, over 35 per cent of registrants have already submitted their payments.
Please note: Those who do not pay on or before February 1, 2018 (by midnight February 1 for online payments or by 5 p.m. for payments delivered by mail or in-person) will no longer be in good standing with the AIBC. After February 1, the cost of annual renewal increases by 25 per cent. Please contact the Institute at accounts@aibc.ca if you did not receive your invoice.
A reminder for those who wish to apply for a waiver or reduction of their annual fees due to financial hardship, family leave, or medical disability, please review Bulletin 3: Waiver or Reduction of Annual Renewal Fee (PDF) for eligibility criteria. The Bulletin includes the waiver application form; the deadline for submission is January 15, 2018.
For your convenience, fees may be paid online by logging into your account through the AIBC website. When logging in to make payment, please keep in mind that individual login IDs are different than your firm login ID.
