Be Ready For the Holidays in 2018
(or other year end expenses) Join the Holiday Club!
For decades, Wauna Credit Union has offered a Holiday Club account, with
a higher interest rate so members can earn more on their money! Members earn interest starting at a $50 balance, and as their balance grows, so does the bonus
dividend.
Members can set up automatic deposits for any amount they want to drop into the account daily, weekly, or monthly — which makes building your Holiday Club fund super simple! Then, around the end of October, the account empties right into your checking account to use for holiday shopping, property taxes, or other expenses.
Holiday Club accounts are a throwback to a bygone era, but still as relevant for saving as ever! While it’s a great way to save, most members don’t take advantage of this higher rate account or even know it exists. Stop in your local branch to start a Holiday Club account today, so you’ll be ready for the holidays
next year pain-free!

Live for Today! Plan for Tomorrow
Starting an IRA to save for retirement or your children’s college education can be easy and pain free. Speak to a Member Consultant at any Wauna CU branch to learn just how simple saving for the future can be. Our robust IRA program will help you play more and worry less.

Notice For Holders of IRAs
Payments from your IRA are subject to federal income tax withholding, unless you elect no withholding. You may change your withholding election at any time prior to your receipt of payment. To change your withholding election, complete
the appropriate form provided by Wauna Credit Union. Withholding from IRA payments, when combined with other withholding, MAY relieve you from payment of estimated income taxes. However, your withholding election does not affect the amount of income tax you pay. You may incur penalties under the estimated tax rules if your withholding and estimated tax payments are insufficient.
