Frequently Asked Questions
How is a credit union different from a bank?
Credit unions are member-owned. Unlike banks, where profits go to outside shareholders, credit unions are owned by the people who use them. When you deposit just $1 with us, you become a part-owner of the organization. Your account works just like a traditional bank account, but with one key difference: the benefits come back to you in the form of better rates, lower fees, and a stronger community connection.
What documents do I need to open my account?
Please have the following documents handy:
- Your Social Security or tax ID number
- Your government-issued ID (i.e. State-issued driver’s license/ID or US passport in English.)
- Proof of your current physical address may be required if the address on your government-issued ID is not current (i.e. Change of address card from the MVA [Maryland only], voter registration card, valid vehicle registration, recent utility bill*, valid (non-expired) lease agreement/addendum/renewal (to include tenant name(s), address, current lease period, signed by tenant(s) & landlord), recent mortgage statement, recent homeowner's/renter's/car insurance statement*, any piece of mail from another financial institution or government agency sent to the applicant's current address post-marked date within the past 30 days.
*Recent is defined as within the past 30 days
