09 Aug How can I change my bank account for ANCHOR?

Q. My bank account information has changed since the last time I received the ANCHOR benefit. How can I change that information? I am automatically enrolled in the benefit every year, so I usually do not have to refile.
— Unsure

A. We’re glad you realized this.

Trying to track down a payment that went to the wrong account can lead to some pretty big delays.

To change your application, the state says you need to contact the Treasury Department directly.

You can call (888) 238-1233 Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Or you can email .
