Member Identification Policy

It is the policy of the University of Kentucky Federal Credit Union to help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities. Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who open an account. Identity verification also helps protect you and us from identity fraud.

What this means for you: When you open an Account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see your driver’s license or other identifying documents.

Please note: UKFCU will not ask you to submit personal or account information via e-mail. If you ever receive an email appearing to be from UKFCU that asks for personal information such as your account number or social security number, do not respond to the email. Please notify us immediately to let us know of the e-mail.
