Sending a wire form or dispute to First American Bank
Time-sensitive requests — a wire authorization, a dispute — each have their own desk at First American Bank. The team reviews the form against your account before it acts on the request. Send well ahead of any deadline, since a misrouted wire form only delays the funds.
One bank, many fax lines at First American Bank
A regional bank routes each kind of document to its own fax line at First American Bank. General account services and the individual departments do not share a receiving line. So the first step is naming the department you actually need before you send.

Faxing to First American Bank — FAQ
It depends on the department. A signed wire authorization may still be faxed even when other documents move through your online account. Match the document to the channel First American Bank wants, and it lands with the right desk the first time. The channel that works is whichever one the receiving department actually asks for.
No. First American Bank routes faxes to separate department lines, so the lending department and the wire transfer desk do not share a number. As a regional bank, it splits incoming faxes across the lending department and the individual desks. Match the department to your document, then send to that specific line. Which line is right depends on the department, not the regional bank as a whole.
Every page should carry your account number and any loan or dispute reference number. Direct the cover sheet to the correct First American Bank team and include a number staff can call. A delivery confirmation then tells you the fax reached First American Bank. The identifiers matter as much as the document itself.
Incoming faxes to First American Bank are not turned away by the hour, but processing is not immediate. The teams that process wires and disputes keep standard weekday hours. A wire authorization has a same-day cutoff, so send well ahead. Confirm receipt of a wire or dispute form rather than assuming it was actioned.
