Search Results Tips

Please note that each search result includes a “Details” link, where you can find more information such as bank contacts or branch details.

  • Each application or notice has a unique OCC application number (also called a filing control number). This appears in the “Application Number” column of your search results. Please include this number when contacting the OCC.
  • Most applications will appear in the results at least twice: once when received, and again when a decision is made.
  • Some applications, like approved business combinations (mergers), will appear a third time when the transaction is completed. These entries will be labeled Received, Approved, and Consummated/Effective under the Actions column.
  • Most notices appear once, usually when the transaction is consummated or becomes effective. Exception: Branch closing notices appear twice—once when the OCC receives the advance notice and again when the branch is closed.
