Before you open your own account you will have to come prepared with some personal identification. You must provide at least two forms of valid ID, please bring original copies. This may include any of the following:
If your ID situation is limited you may have to open a joint account with a parent or guardian until you have enough ID and account history to go it alone. Remember that we are a Credit Union. What's that you say? It's a financial co-operative and you are responsible for purchasing a membership share. A share for a new member under the age of 19 years is 5 bucks and over the age of 19 is 25 bucks. Read more about Credit Unions and Co-ops in the Ask Tom section.
