The increase in the annual program fee is necessary to reflect inflationary pressures on operating costs, administration and staffing, self-assessment and random audit fees, etc.
The fee increase will take effect on September 1, 2024. Invoices generated on or after September 1, 2024, will be as per the new rates.
Please note that program participants not due to be invoiced until September 1 or later, cannot prepay the annual program fee at the rate in effect prior to September 1, 2024.
