Chino members are being notified by mail of the merger, which will change Chino’s name to First Financial Credit Union.
The Deming branch, as well as the Silver City branch, reportedly will remain open.
First Financial Credit Union President Ron Moorehead said Chino members may already be seeing small changes, such as new loan and saving rates, but the complete system conversion will be done by June 1st.
Moorehead said Chino routing numbers are changing, but account numbers will not change immediately.
Any direct deposits, however, will need to be updated with new routing numbers by June 1st.
Members with questions about the merger are encouraged to contact the local Chino Federal Credit Union branch, log on to www.ffnm.org for a live chat, or call 1-800-342-8298.
