The way that I undertand it is (I'm a total outsider to this organization), you get a job first, you become an "active member," after 2 or more years full time experience (and X number of identifications) you pass a test, or series of tests, and get your certificate. After you retire or quit your job you become a "participating member." They might change the status of his membership to correspond with his employment status, or if he fails to pay his dues or whatever, but "retroactively de-certifying" someone sounds like the sort of process that the organization lawyers would want to see fully documented and not just a "note in a file." We'll see what IAI says (or if).

James Tracy: "There is sometimes an undue amount of paranoia among some conspiracy researchers that can contribute to flawed observations and analysis."
Gary Cornwell (Dept. Chief Counsel HSCA): "A fact merely marks the point at which we have agreed to let investigation cease."
Alan Ford: "Just because you believe it, that doesn't make it so."
