All USPA Foreign Affiliate group memberships expire December 31. Drop zones that have not already submitted renewal applications should do so as soon as possible. After December 31, USPA will remove any non-renewing Foreign Affiliate’s listing from Parachutist and the USPA website. If a DZ renews after membership has lapsed, it may take several months for the listing to reappear in the magazine due to publication deadlines and print cycles. USPA mailed renewal packets to Foreign Affiliates in mid-October. DZs that have not yet received a packet should contact the Group Membership department at groupmembers@uspa.org as soon as possible.
