Direct Deposit
Can I set up my direct deposit to put money in more than
one share account?
You can if your employer allows that option. Check with
your payroll office to find out if it is available.
If your employer does not offer that option, you can sign up for our automatic transfer program to make regular distributions to your various credit union accounts and loans.
What information does my employer need to begin direct
deposit?
Your employer will need an authorization form directing them where
to deposit the money, including the credit union's routing number
and your account number.
For Social Security payments use Go Direct to set up direct deposit.
What is Charter Oak Federal Credit Union's routing
number?
211176998
Where do I find my checking account number on my check?
How soon after I sign up will direct deposit take
effect?
This depends on the processing time required by your employer or
payer. Check with them to learn what to expect. Some payments may
take up to 60 days to begin.
How will I know when my direct deposit has
begun?
If you are receiving direct deposit of your pay, your employer
will give you a direct deposit notice with your pay stub rather
than a paycheck. You can use our 24-hour Info-Phone or Internet
Home Banking to verify receipt of your deposit. Your deposit will
also appear on your monthly credit union statement.
How do I change my direct deposit from another bank to
the credit union?
Check with the payer to find out the easiest way to do this. Check
with your employer to find out what form(s) are required.
Send it to your payroll office or the company or organization that makes the deposit. It may take several pay periods, depending on the payer.
