ICBA dues are not deductible as a charitable contribution for federal income tax purposes. However, dues may be deductible as a business expense, except for the 33.2 percent of 2020, and 32.4 percent of 2019 ICBA dues – whenever paid – that are not deductible, according to the Internal Revenue Code, because of ICBA’s lobbying activities on behalf of its members.
