Address Changes

Types of Changes and Procedures

You can change the address on any DDA account for which the client is an owner or authorized signer. If the client is not the primary owner of the account, you can add an alternate address  at the account level.

Note: Do not accept an address change to an account where the individual is a convenience signer and not an owner.

It is imperative that you remain diligent in your client identification efforts, especially when you see one of the following banner messages:
