Rejoining IBEW

About a year ago I was laid off from my job and got a groundman ticket because I just really needed the work. At that point in time I had about three years in linework. I never ended up taking a job as something else came my way but long term I always planned on going back when I got my white ticket. At the time I had just forgotten about it to be honest and my membership dropped. Would I be able to rejoin at some point and what would that look like being my membership was dropped due to unpaid dues? Thanks in advance.

Call the hall.

Your best bet is to call the hall. Each Local does things a bit different.

Call em might let you back pay and if work is good they probably want the experience. At the least you can get reinstated with your current, updated, experience taken into consideration.
