[AXGreg]

Hello all,

I am having a problem that I have a question about. I am trying to test outside of the regional federation (SWKIF) in Febuary at the detroit Taikai, and my federation says I can't because I didn't pay the AUSKF dues for this year or last year. The same thing happened to me in April at the Omaha seminar.

The problem is this: no one at my dojo (including the instructor) told me that this was a requirement. There was never a form given to me about this of any kind. Essentially, I had no way of knowing about this ( I also live 120 miles away from the dojo). This is not a cop out, I am not passing blame. I am trying to figure out why this must happen this way. I have already called the vice president of promotions, and he said there was nothing I can do. My question is why. Why is there nothing I can do?

I am rather confused and upset by all of this. I don't know what to do and will accept any advice.
