IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT OPENING A NEW ACCOUNT

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.

What this means for you:

When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.

Internal Transfer

I understand that transactions between a BMI Federal Credit Union account and another financial institution (U.S. only) will first require verification of the external account.

The process is as follows:

BMI Federal Credit Union will initiate two (2) micro-deposits into the External Account indicated. Micro-deposits are randomly generated deposits under $1.00 which will then be withdrawn. The transactions can take up to two (2) business days to appear in your account.
When the deposits have been initiated, you will receive an email instructing you to visit your External Account. Make note of the dollar amount of each deposit because you will need to record them later.
Follow the link in your email to verify the dollar amount of each micro-deposit. This will ensure the External Account intended will be available to use to fund your new account.
You may also use the "Finalize Application" link from our website to access your application in order to complete the External Account verification process.

If you do not see the micro-deposits in your external account within the specified timeframe, you may need to contact your external financial institution to verify you are using the correct routing number (some institutions have multiple, designated routing numbers).
