USA Patriot Act
Customer Identification
Requirements
In accordance with section 326 of the
USA Patriot Act, enacted October 2001, to protect you, your family and
our country from terrorism by preventing terrorism financing, all
applicants for new accounts are required to provide current picture
identification that verifies identity including name, address and
other identifying information. We must also verify the identity of
persons added as joint owners to and who have access to new or existing
deposit accounts or loans. We must also retain records of the
documents used to verify your identity.
In some cases, identification will be
requested for current account holders if original documentation was
not obtained with the opening of the account or the account was opened
prior to enactment of the Patriot Act.
In all cases, protection of our
member accounts and confidentiality is our concern as we work to
maintain the security of your funds and our country.
Please speak with a credit union
employee if you have any questions or concerns about our requirements
of this policy.
