(b) A financial organization which maintains its savings 

 accounts at branch offices only and which cannot comply with the 

 requirements of paragraph (a) of this section, on the basis that its 

 own internal transmission of deposit credits from a single remittance 

 point to its respective branch offices is impracticable, may certify 

 to that effect by identifying the block provided for this purpose on 

 the form required by 1209.3. Such certification shall serve to waive 

 the requirements of paragraph (a) of this section on the basis that the 

 financial organization cannot otherwise agree to accept remittances for 

 credit to accounts of employees designating such financial organization. 

 Such financial organization shall: 



(1) Establish a standardized series of numeric codes 

 consisting of three digits (001 through 999) to be used uniformly in 

 identifying ejich of its branch offices required to receive remittances; 



(2) Insert, in the space provided on the form, its 

 "employer identification number" and, as a parenthetical suffix, its 

 three-digit CDde identifying the applicable branch office consistent 

 with the address of that office as shown on the form; and 



(3) Make such inter-office adjustments of deposit credits 

 as may become necessary in the event a remittance to one branch office 

 includes credit for a. particular savings account at a different branch 

 office, whether by reason of an inconsistency in the initial designation 

 of the branch office code on the form or otherwise.
