To apply for membership in IATSE Local 22:

1. Submit a completed application, along with a check or money order in the amount of at least $200 made out to "IATSE Local 22", to the Secretary-Treasurer. Applications are available at the Local 22 Union Hall.
2. At the next general membership meeting, the current member will vote on whether to accept the submitted application.
3. If the application is accepted, the application is sent to the International offices in New York for review.
4. If the International finds the applicant to be in good standing, they will return the application to Local 22.
5. Upon receipt of the approved application from the International, the Secretary-Treasurer will contact the applicant at the email provided on their application to establish contact with a member of the Local 22 Board of Examiners.
6. Successful completion of the examination will be communicated to the Secretary-Treasurer by the Board of Examiners member.
7. The applicant will be added to the union email list, and will begin receiving monthly General Membership meeting notices. The applicant must attend a meeting in person and make their first quarterly per capita stamp payment (currently set $66 by the International) to be sworn into membership.

• Applicants who are not accepted into membership by the body will be refunded their application fee.
