_ , ’ 11 • ■ ' ‘ , * I Howto 1 I get the most I I from your bank I By Marion Redd in If you’re a retired citizen you can have peace of mind that your social security check is secure from mailbox thieves, pickpockets or loss from misplace ment. When social security pay ments are the only source of in come, grocery purchases and bill payments can be delayed because stolen or lost checks take time to replace. A sure bit of protection for checks received through the mail is a plan banks provide called di rect deposit. If you sign up for this service the U.S. Treasury will automatically deposit your funds directly into your checking or savings account every month. This is safe and simple and there is normally no charge for the service. Direct deposit also offers convenience. The funds reach your account faster, and you don’t have to worry about how to get your check deposited when you are ill, out of town, or you simply can’t get to the bank. More than three million social security recipients are already using direct deposit, and growing num bers of people are taking advantage of direct de posit for income received through pension, dis , ability and military retirement payments. Some large companies and a number of other govern mental agencies now offer their employees the con venience of having their paychecks deposited di rectly into their bank accounts. Your banker can tell you whether or not your checks can be set up for direct deposit and can assist you in filling out the necessary forms. Direct deposits will appear on your monthly HanV statements unless the deposits are made into a pass book savings account. In this case, you can have the bank periodically update your book. If the money is deposited into your checking . account, you may want to instruct the bank to auto matically transfer part of the funds to your savings account This way you can have a readily accessible amount of money in your checking while the rest is earning interest. Additional information on how direct deposit can simplify your banking transactions is available from your banker.
