FAQ
Tell your banker you would like to transfer a bank account into a trust. Remove any existing bank account beneficiaries. Present an official copy of the trust to your banker. Sign new signature and ownership cards.
Most banks prefer that you and your spouse come to a local branch of the bank and complete their trust transfer form. Typically this is a one or two page document that will ask you to list the name of your trust, the date of the trust and who the current trustees are.
In the state of California, for instance, you may hold up to $166,250 in assets, property, or accounts outside of a Trust and still avoid Probate. But if you have over $166,250 in your account, you should consider transferring it to your Trust so that your Beneficiary can receive their inheritance outside of Probate.

Only the trustee can close the trust account. Check the bank's requirements for closing accounts to see what documentation you need to bring with you, usually personal identification and any papers you received when you first set up the trust account.
A trust account is a special type of account that holds funds specifically identified in a trust document for a specific beneficiary or group of beneficiaries.
