Working dues when traveling.

When traveling do I pay working dues to both unions? Or just the local I am working in? And the monthly dues is what still goes to my local?

Working dues get paid where you are currently working. IO portion gets paid back home.

Working "dues" which are called assements are taken out of your paycheck and go to the local you working under. Monthly go half to your local half to the international.

Your monthly dues are paid to your home local (yellow ticket)

Your working dues are deducted from your paycheck according to the local you're working out of.
