  • Online Withdrawals - You may request a withdrawal from your Account online that will be sent via Automated Clearing House (ACH)* to your bank account, as long as your banking information has been on file with your Account for at least 30 days and your address has not changed within the last 30 days. You may continue to request a withdrawal by using the Withdrawal Form (PDF, 103KB). Non-qualified withdrawals are subject to income taxes and the federal additional 10% tax.
  • User ID access - Instead of using your Social Security Number to sign in, you will now be asked to create your own secure User ID and Password to access all of your accounts when you sign in.
  • Online Rebalances - Move existing contributions and any earnings into another investment option once per calendar year, or upon transfer of funds to a VHEIP Account for a different beneficiary.
  • View Pending Contributions - You are now able to view on-line contributions that have not yet posted to your VHEIP Account.
  • Establish or Change Automatic Contribution Plans - Invest regularly through this feature. Avoid the hassle of mailing a check each month.
