Standardized cash letter forms are offered on the web for your institution's use when sending cash letters to your local Federal Reserve Bank. The forms have been standardized, but the layout, and information required, will be familiar to all experienced users.

In addition to the familiar Forward and Return Cash Letter Forms, we are offering specialty cash letters for specific uses. The Forward and Return Cash Letter Forms have multiple options that can be selected when filling out the form.

The specialty forms are product specific and can only be used for those type of items. These forms may be identified by the grey borders around the form that list the name of the form.

The cash letter forms are:

	Forward		Forward Not Our Item		EZ Clear		Government Deposit
	Return		Return Not Our Item		Large Dollar Return Item		Postal Money Order
	Canadian		Foreign		Image Only - Non Deposit		Check 21
	Forward Non-Imageable Deposit				Return Non-Imageable Deposit

The standardized cash letter forms are spreadsheets and will open in Microsoft Excel for you to use. The forms also have embedded drop-down lists with selections to help you fill out the form. These forms can be used when opened from the Internet, or saved to your computer and used later.

If you have questions about submitting cash letters or cash items, please refer Operating Circular #3 on the Checks Services page at FRBservices.org. (An Internet connection is needed to obtain the Operating Circular.)
