To Whom It May Concern:

Effective June 1, 2008 all vendors receiving payments from the State of Nebraska in excess of $25,000 will be required to receive payments electronically via Automated Clearing House (ACH) payment. Since you have, in the past, received payments over $25,000 and have not yet signed up for ACH payments, you are now being required to sign up for ACH payments.

Please fill out the Vendor Information side of the attached State of Nebraska ACH Enrollment Form and then have your financial institution (bank) fill out the Financial Institution Information side of the form. Both the bank and vendor signatures are required. We are also attaching a W-9 form to be completed and returned with the completed ACH Enrollment form.

Banks are required, per National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA) rule, to provide the information to their customer if requested. During the set up process, please specify that these payments are ACH payments NOT wires. In the past, the mislabeling of these electronic payments has caused a great deal of confusion with state vendors. Once the enrollment form paperwork is received by State Accounting, it takes approximately 6 business days for the banking instructions to become active in the State’s payment process.

YOU MUST SEND US A COMPLETED ACH ENROLLMENT FORM INCLUDING BOTH SIGNATURES ALONG WITH A COMPLETED W-9 FORM BY MAY 30, 2008. FAILURE TO SEND THESE FORMS MAY DELAY TIMELY STATE PAYMENTS.
