Bank On Rockford

Primary IDs

All banks and credit unions are required to collect information from an ID card(s) as follows:

Name
Date of birth
Address
Photo
Signature
Unique identifying number
Issuance date
Expiration date

This information must be contained on a government-issued ID card. Examples of cards accepted as primary ID are:

Illinois Driver License
Illinois State ID
Passport
Permanent Resident Card (Green Card/Alien Registration Card)
Military ID
Consular ID

In addition, most Bank On Rockford banks and credit unions accept the Mexican Matricula identification card. Some may accept other Consular or foreign-issued ID cards. Check our resource guide (coming soon!) for a full list of IDs that are accepted by the various financial institutions.

Secondary IDs

A bank or credit union will usually ask for a secondary form of ID, usually to verify an address, especially if the primary ID has been recently issued. Commonly accepted forms of secondary IDs are:

Proof of Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN)
Certificate of naturalization
Recent utility bill, including ComEd, water bill, garbage bill, Internet/cable, residential phone (cell phone bill not usually accepted)
Student ID card
Union membership card
Employee badge, birth certificate
Health insurance card
Non-photo government aid card (welfare, Medicaid, food stamps)

It is a good idea to check with the bank or credit union ahead of time to see if a secondary ID is necessary and, if so, what types are accepted.
