Will benefits be automatically mailed?

At present, all benefit cheques are being mailed. However, some claimants receive their short-term benefits (e.g. sickness) via bank and credit union accounts.

Claimants of NIS benefits with bank or credit union accounts (Barbados Public Workers’ Co-operative Credit Union Ltd, City of Bridgetown Co-operative Credit Union Ltd, Barbados Workers Union Co-operative Credit Union Ltd.) can request the NIS Direct Deposit Form from the Office, complete and submit it, along with the header of the bank statement.
