Wire Transfers
Need to move money and don’t want to handle the cash? A wire transfer is an electronic movement of funds and is the quickest way to move funds between financial institutions. The funds are guaranteed through a wire transfer, which means they are available for withdrawal immediately after receipt. Family First provides the service of incoming and outgoing wires for domestic transactions. We do not process international wire transfers.

Outgoing Wire Transfers
When initiating an outgoing wire from your Family First account, you will need the following items:
