Given increasing costs and the resources required to process PLU applications, the decision was made to increase the PLU application fee to offset these costs as follows:
IFPS Member Organization application fee: $2,000 USD
Non-Member Organization application fee: $3,000 USD
In addition, the deadlines for PLU application submission/adjudication deadlines have changed. Please see below for the new deadlines.
To minimize the impact on applicants, IPFS has added one extra review period to facilitate the transition:
Submission Deadline of Application Decision Date
September 1, 2024 November 30, 2024
The new deadlines are as follows:
Application submission deadline Decision Date
December 1 February 28
March 1 May 31
June 1 August 31
September 1 November 30
