Invoices Mailed for Capitalization Deposit Adjustments and Annual Operating Fee

Credit unions received invoices for their one-percent capitalization deposit adjustments and annual operating fee. The capitalization deposit is computed based on the total insured shares reported as of December 31, 2023. The Operating fee is based on the credit union’s four-quarter average of total assets reported as of September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022. Payment is due on April 18, 2024.

Credit unions that have authorized automated payment through Pay.gov will be debited the invoiced amount on April 18, 2024. Credit unions that signed up for ACH deposits that are due a capitalization deposit refund will receive the refund on April 11, 2024. Other credit unions will receive their refund by U.S. Treasury check shortly thereafter.

Credit unions should direct any questions to ncusif@ncua.gov along with their name and charter number.
