so it seems that you can defer til 2021
I see that on the website now. I'm pretty sure that wasn't there three weeks ago when I asked them the question. I would have noticed that and I would have assumed they would have answered my question.
Thanks for pointing it out. Oddly enough IMChatt doesn't have that same offer and happens nearly two months earlier.
It's spelled out pretty clearly on the registration page for IMChoo

Thanks. The IMAZ site had a Free Deferral Program section and the IMChatt had it under Withdrawal Options so I didn't see it. Consistency between their race websites would be nice.
