The Navy Federal Credit Union (NFCU) direct deposit authorization form is a standard form which requires the basic information necessary to set up electronic fund transfers with an Employer and the Navy Federal Credit Union. This form should be submitted to your employer provided they will accept and process it with the intention of depositing your payments directly into the account(s) listed. You may choose one or two accounts to link with your Direct Deposit payments but must define the payment portion to be deposited in each. Either or both may be a Savings Account, Checking Account, or Money Market Account. It is highly recommended to keep at least one photocopy of the completed form for your records.

How to Write
Step 1 – You will need to obtain a copy of the Navy Federal Credit Union. This may be done by downloading a blank copy directly to your machine via the button labeled “PDF” to the right of this page. This will require a PDF editor to fill out onscreen or you may print it then fill in the information (legibly).
Step 2 – To begin, report your Full Name in the box titled “Name.” This line will have a specific area for the First Name, Middle Initial, Last Name, and Suffix to be entered.
Step 3 – In the box labeled “Current Home Address,” use the areas marked “Street,” “City,” “State,” and “Zip Code” to enter your Home Address. This should be the Physical Address that is on record with the bank holding the account you will be transferring funds to.
Step 4 – On the third line, below the words “I hereby authorize…,” enter the Name of the Company you will allow to make Deposit payments directly to the Account you will list on this form.
Step 5 – In the box labeled “Account Information,” you must define the type of Account that should receive your Direct Deposit Transfer. You may have the money deposited as one lump sum in one account or you may split it across two accounts. In the box labeled “Account No. 1,” choose one of the Account types allowed to receive a Direct Deposit by marking the check box for the appropriate choice: Checking, Savings, Money Market. Then, report your 10 Digit Account Number in the next box of that row. Finally, in the box labeled “Amount of Deposit,” define how much of your payment should be directly deposited. If you would like the entirety of your payment to be deposited in this method, choose the check box labeled “Net Pay.” If you would like a partial amount to be deposited, then select the box labeled “Other” and enter the amount on the blank space.
Step 6 – The second row of the Account Information Table will provide the opportunity to name a second Account to receive your Direct Deposit. You will need to define the Account Type in the box labeled “Account No. 2,” report the second Account’s Number in the box labeled “Account No.,” and specify how much you would like to deposit by entering it on the “Other” line in the “Amount to Deposit” box. This row may be left blank, if you wish the Direct Deposit to transfer funds to only one Account.
Step 7 – The last line on this form requires your Signature under the word “Signature.” Then, in the box labeled “Date,” enter the Date you are Signing this form.
Step 8 – Make sure the information you have entered conforms to that of the Navy Federal Credit Union. It is highly recommended that you produce a photo copy of the completed form and keep it for your records. When you are ready, submit this form to your Employer’s Payroll Department.
