Settlement Dates
If an effective date is not specified, or if an item specifies an effective date
the same as or earlier than our processing date, the settlement date is the banking
day following our processing date. The settlement date for return items and
NACS items is the banking day of processing (day cycle) or the next banking
day (night cycle).
If an item specifies a settlement date that is a standard Reserve Bank
holiday, the settlement date is the next banking day for us.
If an item specifies a settlement date that is not a banking day for the
sending institution or the receiving institution, settlement is effected, with
respect to that party, as follows:
ACH Debit Items:
Sending Institution Closed: Credit sending institution’s account on
settlement date.
Receiving Institution Closed: Debit receiving institution’s account on
settlement date or receiving institution may choose next day debit with “as o f ’
adjustment or explicit charge for float.
ACH Credit Items:
Sending Institution Closed: Debit sending institution’s account on
settlement date.
Receiving Institution Closed: Credit receiving institution’s account on
settlement date.
The receiving institution is not considered to receive an item made
available to it on the day it is closed until its next banking day for purposes of
determining the deadline for return.
