    2. Provide your Account Number. DO NOT include the suffix. Ex. If your Account Number is 123456 and your checking account suffix is 0700, do not provide 123456-0700. Only provide 123456. Also, do not include any leading zeros.
    3. If the form asks if the funds go to savings or checking, make your selection. If no selection is made AND you have an SFCU checking, the funds will be deposited into the checking account.

  • Once minor reaches age of 18, the certificate will be restricted from accepting deposits. Once minor reaches age of 18, on the next maturity date, the certificate will renew to the 12-month fixed rate certificate and follow all guidelines relative to that product. If the balance is less than $500 it will not renew, and the entire balance will be placed in the savings upon maturity.

Whenever help is needed they are always ready to help and resolve.
