Is my credit union federally insured?
(WSBT file photo) The $700 billion federal bailout bill that passed included a raise in the amount of money the federal government will insure. Previously, customers at FDIC insured institutions were covered up to $100,000. The bailout bill raised that amount to cover up to $250,000. Marianne Wantuch from South Bend has a Good Question: "Does that $250,000 cover National Credit Union Administration accounts as well?

Theirs is called the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund It is also backed by the government for the new $250,000 limit.
