Frequently asked questions
Numerica maintains its own Certificate of Trust form (numericacu.com, form 73-Trust-Certifcation-Doc). For a living trust, it does not ask for the full trust agreement — the signed certificate plus either the trust's EIN or the grantor/trustor's Social Security number or ITIN is enough, though it reserves the right to ask for the excerpts naming the trustees. Two clauses in the form are worth reading before you sign. It requires you to list EVERY beneficiary of the trust and warns that "failure to provide all beneficiaries may alter NCUA insurance coverage." And it states that Numerica will follow the directions of the trustees named on the certificate regardless of what the trust document says, with the signing trustee indemnifying Numerica. A testamentary trust or any other trust (special needs, marital, spendthrift) is treated differently: those need a copy of the actual trust agreement plus an EIN.
