The IRS Buffalo Federal Credit Union is a not-for-profit member owned and operated financial institution established to meet the needs of its members and members of their families.
The IRS Buffalo Federal Credit Union received its charter on February 1, 1957, thanks to some determined IRS employees.
These forward thinking individuals pooled their savings through payroll deductions so members could borrow money at favorable rates. The money earned from loans paid dividends (interest) to the savers. This same concept still exists today. We remain committed to anticipating and satisfying the financial needs of our members and their relatives. We strive to be the best place for our members to save their hard earned money and to borrow from when the need arises.
In addition, we want to provide the services and conveniences that our members desire and deserve and have added many throughout the years.
The Field of Membership consists of Federal Government employees and retirees in the eight Western New York counties of Erie, Niagara, Allegany, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Genesee, Wyoming and Orleans, their spouses, children, grandchildren, siblings, parents, grandparents, stepparents, stepchildren, step-siblings, adoptive relations, domestic partners and legal guardians of primary potential members.
Membership is lifelong unless terminated by either the Credit Union or the member
