Your primary beneficiaries are the people who will receive the funds in your account at your death. Contingent beneficiaries will receive these funds if all primary beneficiaries are deceased.
You can change or add beneficiaries to Ally Bank IRA accounts any time by logging on to online banking and selecting More, then Beneficiaries. You can also call us at 1-877-247-2559 or complete and mail the Change of Beneficiary form.
If you are married, live in a community property state and would like to appoint a primary beneficiary other than or in addition to your spouse, you must submit a notarized Change of Beneficiary form that includes your spouse's signature. Before making any changes, however, you may wish to consult with a tax professional or the IRS for more information.
