Our goal is to work with you to make your transition to Pacific
West Bank as easy as possible. To save you time, we have our
applications online. Please click on the icon at right to complete
either a business banking application or a personal banking application.
Complete it, fax it over and we will have the paperwork ready
for you to come in and sign. To assist you, remember these few
points:
Pacific
West Bank, like all financial institutions, is required to collect
specific information on all account holders under the USA Patriot
Act. Since our forms require personal information on your identity,
we ask that you fax it to us. The world wide web is not secure
so Pacific West Bank recommends you only fax personal information.
Our fax number is 503-905-2223.
To allow us to set up your account, please copy front and back and include with your application two signed, unexpired pieces of ID (driver's license and another piece, i.e., Costco card, debit/credit card, passport, student or employer ID) for each signer on the account. If you are already a customer at Pacific West Bank, we have your ID on file but may ask to update it. For businesses, in addition to two pieces of ID for each signer, please provide copies of the required documents listed on the application for your particular business entity.
If you
complete the application and would like someone from the Bank
to pick it up for you, please call and we would be happy to arrange
a time to pick it up. We will then get the account(s) set up
and arrange a time to have you sign off the final paperwork.
When you open an account with Pacific West Bank, we will ask
you the following questions. It helps to know this in advance
so you can be prepared:
-
Do
you want a debit card?
-
Do
you need checks?
-
Would
you like Online Banking?
Would
you like Online Bill Pay?
USA PATRIOT ACT NOTICE: To help the government fight the funding
of terrorism and money laundering activities, federal law requires
all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information
that identifies each person who opens an account. What this means
to you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name,
address, date of birth, and other information that will allow
us to identify you. We will also ask to see your driver's license
and/or other identifying documents.
