To apply for membership to the IPMA, please download, print off and complete the Membership Application Form (2 pages) and Police Check Form (3 pages) below:
Membership Application form
Police check forms
Please include with your application:
-
A copy of a Veda Advantage (or similar) credit check, no more than one month old, for each individual applying
-
A completed and signed police check authority form, including a copy of the front page of your passport or drivers licence for the principals of your company or a copy of a police check that you have requested yourself within the last month
-
A current photograph of each individual.
Once you have completed the membership application and police check forms, post these along with copies of requested documents to: IPMA, PO Box 7802, Sydenham, Christchurch 8240.
Your application for membership will normally be processed within 3-4 weeks of its receipt (delays are sometimes experienced awaiting police check information).
You will be advised of the outcome of your membership application by e-mail and in writing.
Copies of the IPMA’s Constitution will be sent out at this time, along with a membership agreement form.
Once a signed copy of these are returned, along with the annual membership fee of $250.00, then you are officially a Member of the IPMA. A membership certificate, members contact list for your area and association logos, for use on all your marketing information and stationary, will be sent to you at this time.
Annual membership invoices will be sent out in early March each year. For new members, the first full year will be apportioned according to when you joined the previous year. Annual fees are due to be paid by 1 April. If they remain unpaid at 30 April, membership and its privileges ie: use of logo, claims of membership, listing on website etc will lapse and if the fee remains unpaid by 20 June membership will cease and need to be reapplied for.
