Step 3: Verifying Relationships

Related Topics

The Relationship Verification tab lets you verify a member, non-member or beneficial owner relationship when adding a new member.

Enter the taxpayer ID number in the Joint/Relationship TIN field and click the green arrow to verify if the individual is a member of the credit union. If the individual is a member of the credit union, the member information will appear.

If Portico finds multiple credit union members with the same taxpayer ID number, the Member Search dialog box will appear. Select the correct member and click OK. This will be the member number and statement name that will appear in the Member Number field on the Member Information tab. The Member Number drop-down list will contain all the members with the same taxpayer ID number. You can use this drop-down list to select a specific member statement name to appear in the Relationship grids within Portico.

If the taxpayer ID number is found in the closed account file, the message Joint owner exists on closed account file will appear. To open the Closed Account File dialog box, click the Closed Account icon button. Then, you can use the Action Type drop-down list to temporarily suspend the cross reference check by changing the Action Type field to Suspend so you can add the new relationship without deleting and re-adding the closed account record. Portico will reset the Action Type field back to Stop during the nightly cycle.

If the individual is not a member of the credit union, select the type of taxpayer ID from the drop-down list. Then, complete the tabs to add information about the joint owner.

If adding a beneficial owner that is not a member of the credit union and does not have a valid taxpayer ID number, leave this field blank. You can enter an identification card number or a passport number in the Owner ID field. Then, select the Alien ID check box or Passport Nbr check box to indicate the type of identification.
