Tribal Visa Cards Delayed

In the March tribal newsletter, the Otoe-Missouria Tribal Council announced a change from paper checks & gift cards to reloadable Visa Cards for all per capita payments and tribal assistance. The shift was supposed to happen by May 2012. However, several unforeseen situations have arisen during the planned roll out of this program.  This week the Tribal Council announced that the distribution of the Visa Cards would be delayed indefinitely.  In the mean time, per capita payments will be distributed by paper check at the end of the second quarter, which is the last week of June.
