INSTRUCTIONS YOU MAY NEED FOLLOWING THE ADDITION OF A BANK ACCOUNT
--KEEP THIS PAGE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE-Adding a bank account to your TreasuryDirect account is only that—the addition of a bank account. It does not delete any
previously entered bank accounts nor does it change the source of funds for pending purchases or the destination for
interest and/or maturity payments. After we add a bank account to your TreasuryDirect account, you may need to do one or
more of the following:


Delete a Bank Account – You can access your TreasuryDirect account and delete any bank as long as it is not the
Primary Bank. If you would like us to designate a different bank already listed in your TreasuryDirect account as your
Primary Bank, e-mail us by clicking the Contact Us link in your TreasuryDirect account.



Change the Source of Funds for Pending Purchases – You may change the source of funds on pending
purchases by accessing your TreasuryDirect account and deleting the previous bank. The system will then prompt
you to choose a bank from a drop-down list. If you do not wish to delete the previous bank, you can change the
source of funds by deleting the purchases and re-scheduling them using another bank.



Change the Payment Destination for Interest & Maturity Payments (Treasury Bills, Notes, Bonds, Floating
Rate Notes, and TIPS) – You may change the interest and/or maturity payment destination(s) to a different bank by
accessing your TreasuryDirect account and deleting the previous bank. The system will then prompt you to choose
a bank from a drop-down list. If you do not wish to delete the previous bank, you can change the payment
destination(s) by clicking the Edit Payment Destination button on the Current Holdings Detail page for each security.

HOW A CLOSED BOOK PERIOD CAN AFFECT YOUR REQUEST
Four business days prior to a scheduled interest and/or maturity payment, TreasuryDirect imposes a Closed Book Period
that locks applicable marketable securities so we can schedule upcoming payments. This rule applies to interest payments,
maturity payments, and reinvestments for bills, notes, bonds, Floating Rate Notes, and TIPS.
TreasuryDirect's Closed Book Period starts at 12:00 midnight Eastern Time on the fourth business day prior to the
security's interest payment date and/or final maturity date, and it ends at 12:00 midnight Eastern Time on the interest
payment/maturity date.
TreasuryDirect will not allow the following during the Closed Book Period:






Changes to registration
Changes to the payment destination
Changes to View/Transact Rights
Internal and external transfers
Changes to reinvestments

If the security is in a Closed Book Period because of maturity of the security, any online transactions scheduled but not
processed will be cancelled. If the security is simply paying interest, the scheduled transactions will be processed as soon
as the security is out of the Closed Book Period.
