Your Ability to Withdraw Funds
Our policy is to delay the availability
of funds from your cash and check deposits. During the delay, you
may not withdraw the funds in cash and we will not use the funds to
pay checks that you have written.
Determining the Availability of a Deposit
The length of the delay is counted in business days from the day
of your deposit. Every day is a business day except Saturdays,
Sundays, and federal holidays. If you make a deposit on a business
day that we are open, we will consider that day to be the day of
your deposit. However, if you make a deposit after 3:00 p.m. or on a
day we are not open, we will consider that the deposit was made on
the next business day we are open.
The length of the delay varies depending on the type of deposit and
is explained below.
Same-Day Availability
Funds from electronic direct deposits to you account will be
available on the day we receive the deposit.
Next-Day Availability
Funds from the following deposits are available on the first
business day after the day of your deposit:
If you make the deposit in person to
one of our employees, funds from the following deposits are also
available on the first business day after the day of your deposit:
-
Cash
-
State and local government
checks that are payable to you
-
Cashier’s, certified, and teller
checks that are payable to you
-
Federal Reserve Bank checks,
Federal Home Loan Bank checks, and postal money orders, if
these items are payable to you.
If you do not make your deposit in
person to one of our employees (for example, if you mail the
deposit), funds from these deposits will be available on the second
business day after the day we receive your deposit.
Other Check Deposits
Funds from other check deposits will not be available until the
second business day after the day of your deposit. The first $100 of
your deposits, however, will be made available on the first business
day.
Longer Delays May Apply
Funds you deposit by check may be delayed for a longer period
under the following circumstances:
-
We believe a check you deposit will
not be paid.
-
You deposit checks totaling more
than $5,000 on any one-day.
-
You redeposit a check that has been
returned unpaid.
-
You have overdrawn your account
repeatedly in the last six months.
-
There is an emergency, such as
failure of communication or computer equipment.
We will notify you if we delay your
ability to withdraw funds for any of these reasons, and we will tell
you when the funds will be available. They will generally be
available no later than the seventh business day after the day of
your deposit.
Special Rules for New Accounts
If you are a new member, the following special rules will apply
during the first 30 days your account is open.
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 $5,000 of a day’s total deposits
of cashiers, 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. The
excess over $5,000 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 our
employees, the first $5000 will not be available until the second
business day after the day of your deposit.
Funds from all other check deposits will be available on the ninth
business day after the day of your deposit.
Deposits at
Nonproprietary ATMs
Funds from any deposits (cash or
check) made at ATMs we do not own or operate will not be available
until the fifth business day after the date of your deposit. |
