A G E N T O F T H E U N ITE D ST A T E S Dallas, Texas, January 24, 1963 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION CONCERNING TAX ACCOUNT NUMBERS ON SAVINGS BOND TRANSACTIONS To All Banking Institutions and Others Concerned in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District: The Treasury Department has requested that the information contained in its letter to financial institutions dated January 21, 1963, concerning identification numbers on applications for Series H savings bonds be supplemented to include other types of savings bond transactions which will also require the inclusion of a taxpayer identifying number. The letter from the Treasury Department was forwarded to you with our circular letter entitled Tax Account Numbers on Applications for Series H Savings Bonds, dated January 23, 1963. Effective February 1, 1963, tax account numbers must be shown on applications involving the follow ing types of savings bond transactions: Original issue of Series H savings bonds Reissues of Series H and Series K savings bonds Exchanges of eligible Series E, F or J savings bonds for bonds of Series H Exchanges of matured Series F and Series G savings bonds for bonds of Series H As explained in the Department’s letter, financial institutions may accept applications concerning any of the above transactions from individuals who do not have taxpayer identifying numbers and submit such applications to the Federal Reserve Bank or Branch if the applicant is willing to obtain an identifying number. Such applications will be retained in suspense by the Federal Reserve Bank for a period of not more than eight weeks from the date of receipt. After this period, if the identifying number has not been received, the application will be returned and must be submitted as a new application. Until such time as original issue, reissue and exchange application forms have been redesigned to provide for the insertion of the Social Security or Employer Identification number, please continue using such forms that are currently provided and include the tax account number of the owner as part of the inscription on bonds to be issued.
