I renewed a long expired AHA membership this year in anticipation for some big-ish event happening here this summer.
When I resubscribed I was in the middle of moving, but had informed USPS of that and after moving had started receiving my forwarded mail, but after 3 months had not yet received my AHA membership.
I realized they have a delay in sending memberships, but emailed them asking what was up because I had started receiving Zymurgy already. I got a prompt response to my email asking to verify my address. They had the old one still so I told them the new address and they said they'd send out another card. About 10 days later I received my card sent directly to my new address and then 3 days later I received the card they sent to my old address that had been forwarded by the USPS.
I don't know if the delay on my original card was related to a holdup with the AHA or with the USPS, but to be honest, I don't really care.
I decided to pony up to support the AHA and all that they do for homebrewing. I subscribed for 3 years and when that's up, I'll resubscribe. Please understand that your subscription isn't just to benefit the subscriber, but to benefit homebrewers in general. Their biggest interest isnt in sending out membership cards, but rather to support homebrewers across the country!
Have some patience in waiting for your card. From what I remember, they only send them once a month at the beginning of the month. If you joined at the beginning of a month, but after that month's shipment date, it may take a while for them to get your card out to you, but it will get there eventually!
