2022-2023 Member Dues Process

This guide will help you through the online annual 2022-2023 member dues process. Please read it carefully as we made changes to the way you pay your annual dues and to the member dues reduction categories.

The Annual Member Dues Process: What You Can Expect

  • Your 2022-2023 member dues have been re-set to full member dues (BC Resident-Prime).
  • Please review the eligibility requirements under each member dues category. If you are eligible for a reduction, you will need to complete a declaration to reduce your 2022-2023 dues.
  • As part of the membership dues process, you will be asked to update your contact information, confirm your CPABC Chapter, communication preferences and the annual voluntary Indigenous Self-Identification Questionnaire.

What To Prepare Beforehand

  • Your CPABC Online Services login credentials and password.  If you do not remember your credentials or password, use the links provided at https://services.bccpa.ca for assistance.
  • Access to a printer to print your dues notice.
  • Credit card to pay your member dues through CPABC’s secure online payment system.

How To Pay Your Member Dues

Log into CPABC’s Online Services at https://services.bccpa.ca (you will also find this link in your dues notice). This is the BC Prime-Resident amount; all 2022-2023 member dues were re-set to the BC Prime-Resident dues rate.

If you received a dues reduction for the 2021-2022 dues year, and wish to obtain a reduction this year, you will need to complete an online declaration to reduce your 2022-2023 dues.
