NCCU has chosen to be FATCA (Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act) compliant. This will  allow the Credit Union to continue to perform U.S. based transactions  and will protect you, the member,  from having part of your U.S. source income withheld by U.S. banks.

What is FATCA?

FATCA is legislation enacted by the U.S. government in March 2010 to address tax evasion by U.S. Persons holding savings and investments in accounts outside the U.S.

  • U.S. residence
  • Standing instructions to transfer funds to a U.S. account
  • U.S. care of or hold mail address
  • Power of Attorney with a U.S. address
