If you are switching banks
Re-run the enrollment above with the new account details. Until the change is confirmed, payments continue to the old account, keep it open and sweep the balance until deposits from US Treasury / Medicare (36 Treas 310) appear in the new account. See Switch banks without missing a payer deposit for the full cutover checklist, and EFT reassociation for how to keep matching ERAs to deposits during the transition.Related
