The Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act (SAFE Act), requires credit union mortgage loan originators and their employing institutions as well as employees who act as mortgage loan originators to register with the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System & Registry (NMLS), obtain a unique identifier, and maintain their registration in accordance with the requirements of the SAFE Act.
University Credit Union's registration is NMLS #409731, and our individual originators' names and registrations are as follows:
- Merisa Gates - NMLS ID #188870
- Estela Nagahashi - NMLS ID #1699957

- Britini Pender - NMLS ID #694308
- Sheri Sicka - NMLS ID #809498
- Elizabeth Torres - NMLS ID #1757889
Under the SAFE Act, consumers have easy access to information at no charge regarding mortgage loan originators via www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org.
- JUSTICE, EQUITY, DIVERSITY, & INCLUSION (JEDI) about JUSTICE, EQUITY, DIVERSITY, & INCLUSION (JEDI)
There are two ways to send a P2P payment:
Email address: Your contact will receive an email with instructions on how to direct the payment into their bank account.
Mobile number: A text message will be sent to the recipient with instructions on how to direct the payment into their bank account.
- EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY (EEO) about EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY (EEO)
P2P payments are electronic and can be sent in real-time or via ACH (Automated Clearing House) in 1-2 business days. Recipients can select how quickly they want to receive their payment.
ACH payments incur no fees. Real-time payments incur a $1 fee for the recipient, deducted from the funds sent. A $1.01 minimum payment is required to send funds to a recipient.
- ENVIRONMENT, SUSTAINABILITY, & GOVERNANCE (ESG) about ENVIRONMENT, SUSTAINABILITY, & GOVERNANCE (ESG)
When a payment is sent, the sender and the recipient are both notified when it is delivered. Payments can be delivered instantly or scheduled on a future date and set up as recurring or one-time payments.
When a payment is scheduled, a notification will be sent to the recipient, prompting them to claim their money. If the recipient does not claim the payment, both the sender and the recipient will be notified, and the payment will be canceled. If this happens, the payment will need to be sent again.
