Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
What is a U.S. tax ID number?
If you are registering as an individual, use your Social Security Number (SSN). If you are registering on behalf of a business, use your Employer Identification Number (EIN).
How will I know when an electronic payment has been issued?
You will receive an email to the email address you specified when enrolling.
What if I want to update my payment preferences?
To update your payment preferences, simply sign into your account. You can opt out of electronic payments at any time by setting your payment preference to paper check.
For direct deposit only: To deposit funds into a different bank account, you can update your bank account information at any time. Please note that it will typically take two days before payments will be directed to your new bank account.
How many accounts can I use to receive direct deposit payments?
Zurich can only send electronic payments to one bank account per tax ID. If you are a business with multiple remit addresses using the same tax ID, you will have to process your payments from one location.
