What is the purpose of the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission Direct Deposit Enrollment Form?
This form is designed for individuals who wish to receive their unemployment benefits through direct deposit. Instead of receiving a debit card, enrollees can have their payments directly deposited into their bank account, providing quicker access to funds.
How do I submit the form?
To submit the form, complete all required fields and attach either a voided check or a savings account deposit slip. Make sure your name is pre-printed on the check or slip. Once completed, mail the form along with the attachment to the designated address: ACS for OESC Direct Deposit, 400 Hudiburg Circle, Oklahoma City, OK 73108.
What information do I need to provide on the form?
You will need to provide your first name, middle initial, last name, and Social Security Number. Additionally, include the name and address of your bank or financial institution, specify the type of account (checking or savings), and provide the bank routing number and your account number.
What if I want to switch my direct deposit account later?
If you decide to change your account for direct deposit, you will need to complete a new direct deposit enrollment form. The Oklahoma Employment Security Commission will process this request, but it may take some time. Until the new information is processed, expect your benefits to continue being deposited into your previous account.
What happens if I do not attach a voided check or deposit slip?
The form will likely be considered incomplete. It is mandatory to attach a voided check or a savings account deposit slip to verify your banking information. If this documentation is missing, your direct deposit request may be delayed or rejected.
How can I confirm my direct deposit enrollment?
Is there a fee for using direct deposit?
No, there are typically no fees associated with enrolling in the direct deposit program for benefits. However, it is advisable to check with your financial institution for any potential charges or policies related to direct deposits.
Can I use a bank account that is not in my name for direct deposit?
Direct deposit must be made to an account that is in your name. Enrolling with an account that is not yours could lead to complications, including the denial of benefits. Always ensure the account matches your legal name as it appears on your Social Security card.
What is the contact information if I have questions about the form?
If you have questions regarding the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission Direct Deposit Enrollment Form, you can reach the OESC at their website or call their customer service. Additional assistance can also be provided at the fax number listed: 405-947-2990.
