The U.S. Department of the Treasury is phasing out paper checks for federal benefits and only making electronic payments via direct deposit. 
 
This means check recipients will need to make the switch from paper checks to electronic payments to receive federal benefits, like social security or tax refunds. The federal government’s phase out of paper checks for payments will be completed by September 30, 2025. 
 
If you’ve never set up for payment via direct deposit, we’re happy to assist you at UnitedOne Credit Union. We understand change can sometimes feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do this alone.  
 
Stop by one of our branches in Manitowoc and Sheboygan and a member of our staff will take you through the process and answer your questions. You can also call us or make an appointment online at www.UnitedOne.org. 
 
Below are things you’ll need to ensure a smooth transition: 

• Your 12-digit federal benefit check number 
• The amount of your most recent federal benefit check 
• UnitedOne’s routing transit number: 275979173 
• Your UnitedOne account number and type (checking or savings)
