HB 2080 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Banks and trust companies; share or deposit accounts; payable on death; effective date.

HB 2080 clarifies how "Payable on Death" (POD) accounts at Oklahoma credit unions distribute funds after an account owner's death. It specifies that funds go first to designated primary beneficiaries (individuals, trusts, or 501(c)(3) nonprofits), then to contingent beneficiaries if primary ones predecease the owner, and finally to the account owner's estate if no living beneficiaries exist. The bill requires credit unions to notify beneficiaries of a death, allows account owners to specify equal shares for multiple beneficiaries, and mandates that funds must be claimed within 60 days or become non-interest-bearing. This directly affects account owners, credit unions, and beneficiaries managing POD accounts in Oklahoma.
