Under current Check 21 law, it is not legal to redeem savings bonds or items drawn on non-U.S. financial institutions electronically. However, your credit union can image and archive savings bonds and foreign items as 'Miscellaneous' items using CU*Check 21. In order to collect savings bonds, these items will be delivered via U.S. Mail to the CU*Answers Kentwood Processing Center. Foreign items will be sent to Corporate One via U.S. Mail for processing.
