Processing federal government ACH payments differs from the Nacha Operating Rules in important ways. This 90-minute webinar on ACH Death Notification Entries (DNEs) and reclamations explains your bank's responsibilities when a benefit recipient dies.
You'll learn what the Green Book is, where to find it, and where it covers DNEs and government reclamations, along with how 31 CFR Part 210 applies. The session walks through handling DNEs, returning federal benefit payments for deceased account holders, the return reason codes to use and the timeframes involved.
Commercial reclamations carry less liability and work very differently, so the session compares the two, using examples drawn from real-life scenarios.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
The Nacha Operating Rules still apply to federal government payments, but the Green Book sets exceptions for DNEs and reclamations. Mixing up the two processes can leave your bank liable.
This session suits banking operations managers and staff, compliance, risk and audit professionals, treasury management professionals, banking supervisors and current or aspiring AAPs.
