The Screen Actors Guild (SAG) costs an annual fee to join, which changes. As of 2010 it costs:
The initiation fee is $2,277.00 plus the first semiannual dues. Fees may be lower in certain branch offices.1
Dues are based on a sliding scale, with the amount determined by how much you earn under SAG contracts.2Each SAG member pays annual base dues of $116.00. In addition members pay 1.85% of all individual earnings under SAG contracts between $1 and $200,000; and 0.5% of earnings from $200,001 through $500,000; plus 0.25% of earnings from $500,001 to a maximum of $1,000,000. Dues are calculated on an annual basis, and paid in two installments — the first on May 1, and the second on November 1. Dues are not prorated. Bills are mailed to the address on record before each due date. Members who do not receive bills are responsible for requesting duplicates.2

There is a onetime cost of (currently) $2211 to join and then you pay yearly dues. However, it's not just a matter of joining. SAG is a union for professional actors, therefore you must be a professional actor to join. It's not for newbies. You can claim your status either by the 3 voucher system, working a principal role under a SAG contract or through a sister union. It's all laid our on the SAG website - www.sag.
