Installments and Other Notes
OSB members will receive a quarterly installment statement for each quarter in which it is due. Bar members are granted a grace period of one month after the initial installment default date to sign up for the installment plan, but they will be charged a late payment fee. If payment has not been received by the one-month deadline, installment payments are no longer an option.
If you activate your coverage after January 1, you may be eligible for a two-part or three-part installment option, depending on the date and timing of your activation. Your billing statement will be prorated and a step-rated credit, if applicable, will be applied on your assessment. Coverage is prorated by month; if you work one day in a month, you will need coverage for that month.
If your PLF billing statement default date falls after June 30, the installment option is not available.
