EFT - Payments to Creditors from the Trustee



In order to receive electronic payments from our office please follow all of these steps to complete the EFT process.


To download the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) Registration form click on this link: EFT Authorization Form


Notice: Debtors cannot use this service and must use one of the services listed on the Debtor Payments to the Trustee page.



Authorization Form Instructions:



1. Primary Creditor Name and Check Address



This is the payee name and address used for your disbursement checks. If claims are filed with several variations of the same name/address, then this creates several payee name variations in our database and requires multiple EFT disbursements.


You will need to access those multiple disbursements separately using your password. If multiple name variations are used, please include all names and addresses, attaching additional pages to the form if necessary.


You will be contacted to discuss options to consolidate disbursements or leave unchanged.


NOTE: As a matter of practice, you may want to consider filing all future proofs of claim with one single name and address for efficient EFT processing.



2. Voucher Email Information



  • Voucher Email Information – You must include one central email address that your organization may access EFT vouchers, however, you may provide up to an additional 2 email addresses for additional EFT processors. Vouchers may be accessed in three ways:​
  1. Email - We recommend using a central address, but up to three emails can be used. Each voucher image will be password protected and you must select a user-defined password. A PDF image of a voucher for each unique name record will be emailed to the email addresses registered.
  2. 13 Network – A single password can be used for all creditor names and addresses that you provide on the authorization form. The Trustee’s office will provide this password to you so you may access www.13Network.com to view your vouchers.​
  3. National Data Center (NDC) – You may choose to pay for a subscription to www.NDC.org to access vouchers, which could also include an EXCEL data file.


3. Authorizing Signature



  • For secure verification, this must be an executive level employee and the employee’s position must be verifiable in public records.


4. Dual Control Account Verification Information



  • For security reasons, we need a second person in the office to sign the Authorization form. This second person will receive verification of the test deposit. This email for the second person will not be used as an alternate address for voucher emails unless this same email has been entered as a second email address in the “Voucher Email Information” section found in the middle section of the Authorization form.


PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL THIS AUTHORIZATION FORM. PLEASE UPLOAD USING BANKRUPTCY DOCUMENTS ONLY.



Why we use Bankruptcy Documents?



Email is not secure and can be easily compromised. Emails are retained by your email service provider and if breached, may expose sensitive financial account data to unauthorized parties.


Bankruptcy Documents provides a secure, encrypted method of transfer from your computer to the Trustee’s system. Documents which may contain sensitive information are therefore protected against unauthorized access.
