Wire Transfers

Sending a wire from your Alliant account

To begin your transfer, complete our Outgoing Wire Transfer Authorization Form and fax it to 773-462-2095, or mail it to Alliant, along with a copy of a government issued I.D.

Outgoing Wire Transfers:*

  • Domestic wire transfers are processed Monday-Friday, 8:30am - 2:30pm, CT, for a $25 fee per transfer.
  • Foreign wire transfers are processed Monday-Friday, 8:30am - 10:30am, CT, a $50 fee per transfer, and may take up to 10 business days to be received.
  • Wire transfers are processed within an hour upon receipt of proper documentation and call back phone verification
  • We cannot guarantee that the funds will be posted by the receiving institution the same day of the wire transfer.
  • Outgoing wire transfers requested on the weekend are processed the next business day.

*To avoid additional fees due to returned wire transfers you should contact the receiving financial institution to obtain its wiring/routing instructions prior to contacting Alliant. For your security, all wire transfers require a written request, photo ID (such as your current driver’s license, state ID, United Airlines employee ID badge or Passport), signature and valid phone number. We may, in some instances, initiate a call back to validate identification. Wires are considered immediate transfers. However, final posting times can vary based on wiring instructions and number of institutions or parties it must pass through.
