INACTIVE STATUS

An official who cannot meet the active membership requirements may declare inactive status with PIAA. The official will complete and submit the Inactive Status Form to become inactive for one year. An inactive official:

• ...must continue to pay PIAA dues.
• ...is not obligated to attend the Mandatory Rules Interpretation Meeting or any chapter meetings.
• ...may not officiate any PIAA contests.

At the end of the one-year period, the official automatically returns to active status and is required to meet all PIAA active membership requirements. If the official wishes to remain inactive for a second year, the official must file a new Inactive Status form for the second year.
