Direct Deposit
Fast, direct delivery of your Federal tax refund.
Your refund goes direct to your credit union account, while a paper check can be lost, stolen or be returned as undeliverable mail.
A savings solution
Directly depositing your refund is one way to help you save it rather than spend it!
More great benefits
- Safe - direct deposit has been proven secure over a 30-year history.
- Deposit to multiple accounts - just specify the amounts you wish to deposit in each.
- Convenient - eliminates a trip to deposit a check.
- Quick IRS resolution -- the IRS can resolve a refund problem usually in 24 hours vs. 14 days with a paper check.
How to enroll
1. Fill out this IRS direct deposit form. You can type information directly into the form, or print it out and handwrite the information.
2. To find routing and account numbers, access your Online Banking account, or refer to an account statement or passbook. Routing and account numbers each have 9 digits and they are preceded by a colon (:). For checking accounts, this information is also printed along the bottom of a check:
NOTE: if your account number has fewer than 9 digits, add zeroes to the beginning to arrive at 9 digits.
3. File the direct deposit form with your Federal tax return. You can also just include account and routing numbers on your 1040 form instead of the direct deposit form as shown below.
4. The IRS will then deposit your refund to the account(s) you have specified.
