Savings (Share) Account

There is a $25.00 minimum deposit required to open a savings account and entitles you to all the other benefits and services at the Credit Union. Dividends on savings are calculated on the average daily balance and are payable monthly. Make your Credit Union the place to save money!

Checking (Share Draft) Account

If you think all checking accounts are alike, it's time you checked us out. A Credit Union Checking Account can save you a bundle in service charges and individual check processing fees. Along with economic benefits, our checking account gives you the security of automatically transferring money from your savings account to your checking account to cover a check when there are insufficient funds. There's no minimum balance required. You receive monthly statements and canceled checks are stored on discs for your convenience.

Club Account

You can use a Club Account to save for just about anything - Christmas, vacation, taxes or all-purpose. Club Accounts make it easy to save, through Payroll Deduction, and you earn dividends like our regular Share Account.

Children's Accounts (Age: Birth - 18 yrs.)

All children’s accounts require a deposit of  $25.00 to open, but earn dividends on all amounts of $5.00 or more. 

HealthFirst FCU knows how important it is to start teaching our children at a very early age how important it is to learn how to manage their finances by learning good savings habits.  For each child that opens a savings account, HealthFirst will deposit $10.00. 
  

Share Certificate

If you're looking for a savings account that offers higher dividends than regular savings without tying up your money for a long period of time, a Share Certificate may be the answer. We offer fixed rate Certificates as short as six months and as long as thirty-six months. These shorter terms allow you to earn dividends without losing access to your funds in a practical amount of time. Our Certificates require a minimum deposit of $500 for terms up to twelve months and $1000 for terms of eighteen to thirty-six months. Early withdrawals will be subject to a penalty of ninety days interest.

Individual Retirement Account

Plan now to enjoy a comfortable retirement by opening a Credit Union Individual Retirement Account (IRA). With benefits such as higher dividends than regular savings and tax-deferred interest earnings, an IRA is a perfect supplement to other sources of retirement income. You can contribute once a week, once a year or however often you'd like, as long as you stay within the contribution limits.

The Taxpayer Relief Act Act of 1997 created a variety of new IRA options. Not only did it change rules for the traditional IRA, but it also introduced the Roth and Education IRAs. Traditional IRAs  are more attractive than ever because expanded income limits mean more people will be able to make tax-deductible contributions. In addition, penalty-free withdrawals are allowed for qualified higher-education expenses. 

Contributions to both Roth IRA or Education IRA aren't tax-deductible, but the accounts offer the opportunity for tax-free earnings.

When you are ready to contribute to an  IRA, please contact us. We're here to help you save for your goals with an IRA
