When you open an account, we will need you to provide your name, address, date of birth and other information that will allow us to identify you. You may also be asked for your driver's license or other identifying documents.
 

We know it may seem odd to verify identification of someone we've known for years.  However, to guarantee that nobody “slips through the cracks” the law was written so that all customer and member identities are verified.  This will not have to be done every time a branch is visited, but it will be done periodically.

We are required to keep proof that we have verified identification.  Our member base is periodically checked against a list of known or suspected terrorists.  This act should have little or no affect on law-abiding citizens.
