Instructions for Sending Cash Payments

Since many international members may not have access to US currency or instruments negotiable at US banks, TASC will accept payment in local currency (see previous page). TASC will also accept responsibility for currency lost in the mail provided that the following procedure is followed:

1. Send a note (preferably by e-mail) to both the TASC Secretary AND the TASC Treasurer stating your intent to send a cash payment through the mail. (Note the amount being sent, the members name, and the date it is to be mailed).
   
   
2. Cash should be inserted between some type of heavy stock not susceptible to translucent viewing, and sent via first class mail or airmail if overseas. Any amount in excess of the amount specified (required to avoid sending coins) will be credited to the following years membership dues.
   
   
3. Mail the payment to:
   The Association for Somali Cats
   PO Box 1201
   Philomath, OR, USA 97370
   
   The membership form should be sent separately from the payment (preferably by e-mail from the TASC website, tasc.freeservers.com/memberform3.htm).
   
   
4. The secretary will reply (via e-mail or postal letter) when the envelope is received or after 14 days from the date the cash was to be sent if it wasn't received.
   
   
5. If you receive a notice that the cash was not received, you must send a note to the secretary confirming that the cash was sent as specified. If the payment has still not been received after 21 days, you will be credited with the payment. TASC will accept cash payments that depart from this procedure, but will not accept responsibility for lost payments.
