Definition
The forwarding of your net paycheck from your employer to your First Financial account in a
manner that will allow it to be credited to your checking or savings account on the day you are
paid.
Have your paycheck automatically deposited to your First Financial checking account
and avoid the hassle of making a trip to one of our offices on payday. Take advantage of this
service and receive free standard-style check printing and up to eight free transactions at
non-First Financial ATMs each month. Members also enjoy a 1/2% discount on most loan rates when
the loan is repaid through payroll deduction, direct deposit or through automatic means.
The Benefits of Direct Deposit
Your funds are immediately available upon receipt: Avoid check holds which would apply if
depositing your paycheck over the counter.
Safety and Security: Peace of mind knowing your paycheck is automatically deposited into
your account whether you're out of town, ill, or simply cannot make it to the Credit Union.
Free Checks: With direct deposit to a First Financial checking account, your orders of
our standard style checks are free! Designer check styles are also available.
To Initiate Direct Deposit:
If you are employed by a First Financial member group: Simply contact any of our
offices to secure a payroll request card.
If you are employed by a company outside of our member groups: Contact your payroll
department to verify their direct deposit processing capability and to ask for any necessary
forms. You will need to provide your employer with our routing and transit number (which is
2550 7767 1), and your account number.
If you a Federal Government employee or are a Social Security recipient: You have two
options for signing up. You can set up your direct deposit by telephone by calling the Social
Security Administration at 1-800-772-1213. You will need to provide our routing and transit number
(which is 2550 7767 1), and your account number. The second option for signing up requires you
to complete Form 1199A, which is available at any First Financial office
Members who receive a Maryland State Retirement check: May sign up for direct deposit
