Membership dues paid to the American Ambulance Association are not tax deductible as charitable contributions; however, they may be tax deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses. The IRS has determined that dues are non-deductible as a business expenses to the extent that they support lobbying activities. The AAA budget projects 50% of dues revenue to be spent on lobbying and is therefore non-deductible.
Each entity seeking to become a member of the AAA must submit accurate information on the membership application. Each ambulance service wishing to be an Active Member of the AAA is required to declare certain information on the initial membership application and on the annual membership renewal notice:
- Each single-state ambulance service is required to declare (on the initial membership application and annual membership renewal notices) all of the ambulance vehicles that are licensed to transport patients.
- Each multi-state ambulance service is required to declare (on the initial membership application and annual membership renewal notices) each state in which they maintain an ambulance operation.
