AP and my adult kids question

[schoen]

I would call MS but my cell won't work..

I can't get my adult son who does not live with me an AP right? What about his wife? I think I am understanding this right, I just want to be sure. It is kind of a bummer that I can't get it for him...

My understanding is they must produce ID that has the same address as yours to qualify for AP discount. So if they don't live in your imediate househould they can't get DVC AP. Sorry

Who is eligible to receive the discount?

Disney Vacation Club Members receive a discount on the Pass for themselves and their immediate family residing in the same household only. At the time of purchase or redemption, your Disney Vacation Club Member ID card must be provided and ALL ADULTS must present a valid driver's license or state identification card showing they reside in the same household.


Who is defined as "immediate family"?
"Immediate family" is defined by Walt Disney World Resort for discount purposes as noted below:

Can I use my discount to buy a Pass for someone other than myself or immediate family residing in the same household?
No. This discount is exclusive for Members and may not be transferred. This perk may be revoked in the event of abuse.

One of my pet peeves with the rules. It doesn't make sense for a family of six to get 6 annual passes when they can own just 50 points for example.

And to allow only one (in a household) to a person who might own over 550 points. We sure pay almost $2700 in dues each year.

Wish they would base it on number of points or prorate it some how.

If you want family members who don't reside with you to be able to get the discounted tickets, they have to be listed as co-owners of the contract. When this is the case, they'll have their own membership cad to get their passes.

Are you talking about associate members? I thought only two names could be listed as owners on the deed.

Associate members don't get ID cards or priviledges. I was talking about additional purchasers... but I didn't know there was a limit of purchaser and only one additional purchaser. The description of different member types on the member web site made it sound as if you could have multiple additional purchasers.

Seems unfair, since a corporate ownership can apparently have multiple affiliate members with full priviledges.

When we purchased in January of this year, we were given the option of putting our grown son on as an owner, with the same privileges given us. We opted to wait, which will involve an additional cost when we decide to add him on.

I've seen this posted before. As long as the owner understands the contract is at risk if the co-owner has future financial troubles. I suppose this would be true for any situation that involves binding people to an asset or loan.
