Direct Deposit
Have all or part of your paycheck sent directly to the credit
union each payday. Direct deposit allows you to earn dividends
on your savings immediately-and you don't have to drive to
the credit union. Also, members who use direct deposit may
be eligible to receive a rate discount on certain LFCU loans.
Worldwide Funds and Wire Transfers
Due to restrictions placed on financial institutions by the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and U.S. Patriot Act, wire to foreign banks must be routed through a U.S. Correspondent Bank utilizing an ABA Routing number.
If you wish to initiate a foreign wire transfer, you will need to obtain wiring instructions from the beneficiary financial institution that include a U.S. Correspondent Bank and ABA Routing number. As always, you will need to complete a wire transfer request form (available on our website) and provide us with valid ID.
We regret the inconvenience this may cause and hope you will understand LFCU’s need to fully comply with the aforementioned regulations. If you have any questions, please call LFCU at 301-929-7990 or 800-888-6560 or email us at memberservice@lfcu.org. We appreciate your patience and cooperation in this matter. |
Should you wish to wire funds to your LFCU
account, the credit union's
ABA/routing number is 254074811.
