Casual Applications Now Open For Professional Fee Reimbursement

Dear PEA members,

Casual members are now able to apply for funding to cover their health science professional fees for 2023 – negotiated in the recent round of HSPBA bargaining.

Funding is limited and we encourage all Casual members to submit their applications by December 15th. Funds will be distributed based on the number of applicants and the amount of funds remaining. Reimbursements may need to be pro-rated. The PEA cannot guarantee sufficient funds will be available after December 15. We encourage members to apply as soon as possible. Actual payments may take several weeks to process.

You are encouraged to apply for reimbursement for the highest dollar value fee you paid or will pay in 2023 and you will be reimbursed up to a maximum cap, informed by the fee rates set by regulatory bodies and professional associations. Please note that the maximum cap is based on required regulatory professional fees. Voluntary fees in excess of this amount will not be fully reimbursed.

How To Apply
To apply for reimbursement of your 2023 health science professional fees, please submit the following three documents to hspfees@pea.org:

A completed 2023 HSP Pro Fees Reimbursement Application Form
A digital copy (picture or scan) of the receipt you are applying to claim reimbursement for.
A completed Direct Deposit Form (please complete this form even if you have previously submitted one to the PEA).

Reimbursements have begun for all regular members. If you do not receive your reimbursement by December 5th, please email your enquiry to HSPfees@pea.org. We thank you for your patience.

Thank you,

Rhiannon Bray
