NOTICE OF CHANGE TO OUR FUNDS AVAILABILITY POLICY

The funds availability changes are effective July 1, 2020.

We are making changes to our funds availability policy with you.  The dollar amounts in BOLD have increased.

Next-Day Availability
In come cases, we will not make all of the funds that you deposit by check available to you on the first business day after the day of your deposit.  Depending on the type of check that  you deposit, funds may not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit.  The first $225 of your deposit, however, will be available on the first business day.

Safeguard Exceptions
In addition, funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
  • We believe a check you deposited will not be paid.
  • You deposited checks totaling more than $5,525 on any one day.
  • You re-deposited a check that has been returned unpaid.
  • $5,525 if you have overdrawn your account repeatedly in the last six months.
  • There is an emergency, such as failure of computer or communications equipment.
Special Rule for New Accounts
Funds from electronic direct deposits to your account will be available on the day we receive the deposit.  Funds from deposits of cash, wire transfers, and the first $5,525 of a day's total deposits of cashier's certified, teller's, traveler's, and federal, state and local government checks will be available on the first business day after the day of your deposit if the deposit meets certain conditions.  For example, the checks must be payable to you (and you may have to use a special deposit slip).  The excess over $5,525 will be available on the ninth business day after the day of your deposit.  If your deposit of these checks (other than a U.S. Treasury check) is not made in person to one of your employees, the first $5,525 will not be available until the second business day after the day of your deposit.

The result of this change is that, in the circumstance when the updated dollar amounts apply, more money will be made available sooner.

Please refer to the Funds Availability Policy
