  1. Open an account at CPM Federal Credit Union before closing your old account(s). You will still be able to transact on your account during the transition.
  2. Keep your old direct deposits and Billpay accounts open until they have all successfully been transferred over to CPM.
  3. Be sure to leave enough to cover any automatic payments in your old account in case it takes more than one billing cycle for the changeover.
  4. Keep old checking account open until all transactions have cleared.
  5. Have CPM’s account routing numbers handy for canceling, establishing or redirecting direct deposits and auto payments.
  6. Get written verification all accounts, as well as debit and credit cards if applicable, have been closed.
  7. Be sure to empty safe deposit box and turn in the key, if applicable.
