When we receive your application and payment we will:
- Set-up your investment account.
- Mail a welcome kit to you 3 - 5 business days after receipt of your application.
- Mail a debit card to you within 7 - 10 business days after we receive your application.
Note: if you do not receive a debit card within the allotted
7-10 day time frame, you have until the 15th business day, following the 10th day, to
report the occurrence. If it is reported after the 15th day, a $15.00 fee will be

For example, if your HSA’s effective date is 06/01/10 and you do not receive your debit
card by 06/10/10, you have until 06/25/10 to contact us so we can issue a new card free
of charge. If it is reported after 06/25/10, the $15.00 fee will apply.
