Setup/Change/Delete Repetitive EFT Authorization Instructions

FORM EFT01

USES

The Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Authorization (EFT01) must be used to set-up, change, renew or delete any EFT.  Payments made by EFT may be accepted due to one or more of the following:

• Legal or contractual requirements
• Expedited payment required
• Guaranteed payment delivery requested
• Most cost-effective payment procedure

Repetitive wire or other EFTs should be requested when a transfer routing is likely to be used more than once. The LUC Treasurer’s Office will make the final decision as to the necessity of an electronic payment instead of a check.
