are grateful to our members
for placing their trust in us,

home financed by the credit union. She testifies

only was it smooth, organized and fast but more
importantly for her she says that the credit union
team made her feel “very calm and relaxed” in a
process that can sometimes be highly stressful.
“Robert Walker and Ricky Ramos were
really helpful. They kept assuring me that
everything would be OK. And it was.”

Getting Cash at a Shared
Branch
As a convenience to our members,
We Florida Financial participates
in the CO-OP Nationwide Shared
Branch Network. Members who
are unable to come to a We Florida
Financial branch can go to other
credit unions in this network to
make certain types of transactions.
Due to increased levels of financial
fraud, and for the protection of our
members, we are changing the daily
limit amount of cash that We Florida Financial members
may withdraw at a shared branch facility. This amount will
be $1,500 per day. Encore Account withdrawals will be set
at a $250 daily limit. The new limit will go into effect on
April 1st.
If you have questions, please call us at 954-745-2400 and
select Option 3.

Regardless of when you plan
to retire, Social Security will
likely be an important part
of the road ahead. But many

are options to consider when
it comes to collecting Social
Security. The decisions you make now could help you get more
out of your benefits. Are you looking for more information
about how to maximize your Social Security benefits?
Join us for a free educational seminar on

Your plans for drawing Social Security are a critical financial
decision, and if you know the “rules of the road” it can make a big
difference in the success of your retirement journey. Whether
it’s the timing of starting Social Security or options for you and
your spouse to coordinate your income plans, the path you follow
could help you to get the most out of your benefits. This seminar
will address these issues and answer more of your questions:
• What are the rules for collecting your Social Security
benefits, and will recent changes affect you?
• How can spouses coordinate their benefits and possibly
receive more?
• Are there different routes to take that could potentially
increase your benefit amount?
• How can Social Security fit within your overall retirement
income plan?
