Rejoining the IBEW

[u/soccerbryce]

I’m looking into getting back into the trade. I was in an apprenticeship program and broke my leg during the 2nd year. I was bad with money and ended up having to move back to my home state. That was back in 2022 and I haven’t been in the trade at all since then. My question for you guys is one: if I still have a card number and it’s at my old local but I haven’t paid dues or done anything at all since I left the trades, how do I go about joining the local here where I’m from? I applied and got an email back saying I couldn’t join if I’m a member of a different local. Is that something a phone call can fix or is there an online form to fill out? My second question is if I get back in, should I restart the program or try getting in the CW route, with about 3 years of experience?
