Ask Terry Questions treasury direct acct says needs verification
i filled out all the forms to sign up and get account, i got the account number [u with 6 numbers} .then i got message saying “we are having difficulty verifying the information you provided and as result a HOLD has been placed on your account’. Then told to submit Account Authorization form number 5444 and notarize and might take 13 weeks to approve. so any ideas? thanks Don

That happens when you use an address that is not on your bank account, or transpose an account number. The Treasury is very stick about this. You can try to call them early in the morning at 844-284-2676 to find out exactly what the problem is. Otherwise you have to file that 5444 form.
