NOTICE TO CREDIT UNION MEMBERS REGARDING UNCLAIMED PROPERTY
The State of Illinois has enacted a new law governing unclaimed property held in the State. The Revised Uniform Unclaimed Property Act went into effect on January 1, 2018. Under this act, the presumptive period of abandonment for deposit accounts changes from 5 years to 3 years. As a result, accounts without any owner activity for a 3 year period will be turned over to the Illinois State Treasurer's Office, upon completion of the owner notification procedure and subject to the criteria set forth in the Act.

2018 REACH Events
During the month of May, Credit Union 1 will be having a Shred Event. Shredding sensitive documents is one way to reduce your risk of becoming an identity theft victim. Identity thieves steal their victims’ information and money, damage their credit score and their ability to secure a loan, and to add insult to injury, tarnish their reputation by also committing crimes in their name.
Throughout the month of May, several of our branches will be hosting a Shred Event to provide a secure way for our members and the people in our communities (excluding businesses) to destroy your personal information and keep it out of the hands of crooks. To allow us to accommodate as many people as possible, bring up to 2 file boxes, or 3 grocery bags full of confidential documents to be shredded at one of the Credit Union 1 Shred Events listed below. Documents will be shredded onsite free of charge.
Please do not bring items that will jam the shredder.
| Items to Shred |
Items NOT to Shred |
- Bank or Credit Card Statements
- Tax Returns
- Papers with Account Numbers, Social Security Numbers, or Medical History

Credit Union 1 and its employees are not responsible for any documents removed from our immediate area prior to shredding. It is the sole responsibility of the person to supervise their material at all times while waiting to have the information shredded.
