The special rate is only $33 each includes the national and chapter dues. Upon renewal you have the option to renew for 1, 2 or 3 years. The national dues are the same everywhere but the chapter dues vary by particular chapter. (Contact your local chapter for its dues amount or call NARFE toll free: 800-627-3394). You can save money by renewing for the longer terms. Even better is to sign up for Dues Withholding from your monthly annuity. With dues withholding you do not have to pay the full 3 year dues in advance and yet you get the same low rate.  Further you save on checks and mailing costs. If you select Dues Withholding, the dues is only $2 to $3 per month depending on which chapter you belong to. The rates for those not on Dues Withholding are:   One year is:  $29 per member plus the chapter dues Two years are:  $52 per member plus the chapter dues (a savings of $6)   Three years are:  $74 per member plus the chapter dues (a savings of $13) Current employees and their spouses get a discount on the rates for as long as the member remains a current employee of the federal agency.
