Full membership

Has anyone applied for full membership yet after their recent results? If so how long did it take you to get confirmation ??

I'm interested in knowing about this and the cost.

I applied last Tuesday when I got my results. I paid £25 and the AAT said it would take about 4 weeks for me to be elected for membership.

Hi aer87

When I applied for membership I paid £25 and the AAT told me that because I paid my student membership at the end of July 08 there would be no other charges for the year.

We shall see though. Whenever I contact them I get told something different.

thanks

hey speegs

thanks for ur swift reply
i didnt pay the subscription in july, so guess i should pay both, haha
so when we full members, do we have to pay that subsrciption fee every year still?

I have just applied for full membership I paid a total of £94.00. £69 for annual subscription and £25 for the full membership admin charge.

I feel quite excited cant wait to put letters after my name.

Maybe a silly question but what difference does being a full memeber make, other than being able to put the letters after my name?

Not sure how often I'll be doing that.

Hi Again

Because I paid £69 in August 08 I only had £25 for my full membership. I took less than a week an a half for my full membership to be approved and I can now use the letters MAAT after my name. Every year you have to pay your full member fees. On top of this, if you are a member in practice you will also have to pay an MIP fee ( I paid £35) this week and I hope My application to become an MIP is approved. Also I will have to pay a £15 money laundering fee.

As well as being able to put MAAT after my name, I also now have access to the AATs "CPD Interactive" website. THis is a free service with loads of cool CPD stuff. It actually makes CPD fun and easy to do.

I love being a full member and it's not even been a week yet.

whats the money laundering fee???

I dont think theres a fee, I think it's included in the MiP fee. At least I didn't see any indication that I had to pay extra when I applied!
