Details Information

Abstract: The Department of Treasury, Financial Management Service, is amending 31 CFR part 208 to facilitate the delivery of relief and assistance payments to victims of disasters or emergencies. Part 208 implements the provisions of 31 U.S.C. 3332, which generally requires that Federal payments be made by electronic funds transfer (EFT). Under 31 U.S.C. 3332, the Secretary of the Treasury must ensure that any individual required to receive a Federal payment by EFT has access to an account at a financial institution at a reasonable cost and with certain consumer protections. This amendment implements 31 U.S.C. 3332 by providing that the Department of the Treasury may establish and administer accounts for disaster victims to allow for the delivery of Federal payments by EFT.
