USA Patriot Act Customer Identification Program

Fighting terrorism and money laundering activities

Important Information About Procedures for 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 to 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.

If you presently have an account with us and add a joint owner or owners to an existing account, we must also verify and retain copies of their identification.

We ask for your understanding as we work to support these efforts to maintain the security of your funds and our country.
