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.

Note: This application is hosted on a secure server; however, if you feel more comfortable, you may open your account using our Call Center, (516) 561-0030 or (800) 99-NEFCU outside LI/NYC.
