This form is reviewed regularly and all steps and information included are up to date.
Step 1: Initiate the Transfer with Your Broker
It is important that you contact your financial institution to request their required procedures and forms and provide them with the delivery instructions found below. Include the donor’s name on all deliveries.

Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC
DTC Clearing 0015
For the account of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Indianapolis

Note: Some financial institutions and mutual fund companies require the use of their own form or an additional letter of instruction. If you are transferring mutual funds, please check with your broker to see if the funds are transferrable. If they are not transferrable, please contact Caryn Wilkinson at Morgan Stanley, 317-818-7388 for further assistance.
Step 2: Notify the Archdiocese About Your Transfer
If the Archdiocese is not informed of the details of your transfer, your gift acknowledgement cannot be generated and will be delayed until we hear from you.
The form below serves as notification to the Archdiocese about your transfer. In the past you might have communicated such information to us via email or a paper form. We require these details as often the stock transfer includes limited information, making it difficult to provide proper acknowledgement. Please complete the form to the best of your knowledge and reach out to us with any questions or concerns.
Note: Those who prefer to submit gift details in writing rather than using the electronic form that follows may submit that information to us in writing. Please use the document located HERE to provide us full details on your gift. Documents should be submitted to Archdiocese of Indianapolis, 1400 N. Meridian Street, Suite 105, Indianapolis, IN 46202. Please note, if we do not receive proper notification and designation, the gift will be placed into the general fund until all details are confirmed.
Step 3: Confirm Your Transfer
Transfers must be initiated by your financial advisor or broker. Please confirm with your broker or advisor that your gift has been transferred from your account to the Archdiocese account. Once received, it usually takes 5-7 business days for your transfer to be liquidated, settled and posted. It is at this time that we move the funds to the designated ministry and process a tax acknowledgement for your gift.
Should you need additional assistance or have questions concerning your gift please contact us at osd@archindy.org or call Jeri Friel at 317-236-1415.
