NIS pensioners can have their pensions deposited to their bank and credit union accounts.
Your pension can be issued for a four-week period instead of the two-week intervals to which you are accustomed.
Please ensure that you complete the NIS Direct Deposit form with the correct bank or credit union account information. The form can be collected from the customer service desk at the Frank Walcott Building, Culloden Road or downloaded from our website.
In order to ensure that we capture your bank or credit union accounts accurately, we request that you attach the header from the bank or credit union statement to the completed direct deposit form. The part of the statements which has the financial details of your account is NOT required. The NIS Direct Deposit Form bearing your account number and the official stamp of your bank or credit union will also be accepted.
If you have any queries about being paid by direct deposit, please call our contact centre at 467-4647 or email us at customer.service@bginis.gov.bb. You can also visit us at www.nis.gov.bb for further details.

Good day, I am having an issue with my NIS pension being deposited to my Bank Account in Canada. It shows as a “Visa Deposit CREDIT” last 3 months. However, I was receiving my NIS pension since 2020 and it has always shown as NIS Pension deposit into my CIBC Account. Why is there a change. I submit a statement to CRA every month showing my NIS and it is unacceptable to show as ‘VISA DEPOSIT CREDIT” as this will make it a taxable income.
I have written to Norma King-Brathwaite, and Jillian Hurley on September 27th together with copies of my bank statement showing how this NIS is deposited to my account. I also emailed your customer service and they have promised a response within 2 business days, but todate I am still waiting almost 2 months after the fact. My October pension is deposited into my Account in the same maner “VISA DEPOSIT CREDIT” WHY???
