FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
When will the wire transfer funds be received?
We have no control as to when the funds will be posted at the receiving financial institution. Contact CRCU for information.
Why did I receive less funds then the amount transferred?
Some financial institutions charge an incoming wire fee. Contact the receiving financial institution for wiring instructions.
Why do I need a US correspondent bank for international wire transfers?
The financial institutions that process our wire transfers do not process international wires. They must process it to a US correspondent bank and then to the receiving financial institution in the other country. Some US correspondent banks only process transfers to specific international banks.
