CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Professional and Financial Regulation announced a partnership with Illinois banks.
Governor J.B. Pritzker announced during Sunday’s briefing that a partnership has been established to allow non-customers to cash their stimulus checks for free.
“One in five Illinois households are un-banked and many will receive paper stimulus checks. I want everyone who is receiving a check to get its full value. Seek out these partner institutions to cash this check because they will not charge you any fees,” said Pritzker.
Some partnering institutions include Wells Fargo, JP Morgan Chase, US Bank, Fifth Third, and First Midwest Bank.
