Operative words

In June 2020, the NCUA provided an update on its phased approach to returning to onsite operations in Letter to Credit Unions, 20-CU-20. Given the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic, and after consultation with our public health consultant, the agency is prepared to move into its first phase of resuming onsite operations (Phase 1) in some areas of the country. As part of Phase 1, NCUA staff and contractors will be permitted to volunteer to work onsite at credit unions beginning July 19, 2021. During Phase 1, staff may only volunteer to work onsite in locations where public health data indicates pandemic conditions have sufficiently moderated.

Enforcement

NCUA examination program

Notes

The Q3 2021 instrument for credit unions: on July 19, 2021 a federal regulator was only beginning volunteer, location-limited on-site work, sixteen months after mandating an all-remote posture
