Where can I find this?

This information can usually be found on one of your blank checks, as illustrated below. Please contact your bank, credit union, or other financial institution if you're still not certain where to find it.

This is a sample check showing the routing number, which consists of nine digits and is located at the lower left corner of the check. The account number is located just to the right of the  routing number.

Important: If your account is at a credit union, investment company, or a small bank, look below your bank's name on the check. If it says "Payable through" and shows the name of another bank, it means your bank processes checks through a different bank. You will need to contact your bank and ask for the correct Routing Number to use for direct deposit.
