You may qualify for a refund of the PROVINCIAL PORTION of MNU dues deducted by your employer, if you paid MNU dues at two or more facilities/employers during 2009.

Union dues consist of two components, the PROVINCIAL and Local dues portions. Only the PROVINCIAL portion of MNU dues is refundable.

PROVINCIAL DUES:

$22.00 per pay period x 26 pay periods = $572.00.

LOCAL DUES:  

depending upon the Local, range from $1.00 to $8.00 per pay period x 26 pay periods. (This amount is NOT refundable.)

EXAMPLE:

You have been deducted $24.77 in union dues in one pay period ($22.00 Provincial dues and $2.77 non-refundable Local dues). You would have to pay 26 pay periods of $22.00 to reach $572.00 in Provincial dues before qualifying for a refund. We would then refund the provincial dues portion which exceeds $572.00. If you are paying MNU dues at two or more facilities/employers and exceed $572.00 in Provincial dues, please apply for a refund  by January 31, 2010.
