The funds will be added to the Board 63 check (that the contractor writes ever month) including Health and Welfare, Retirement, Working Assessments and now Vacation Fund.
This check is sent in from the Contractor you work for, once a month to Board 63. Board 63 will divide the check and send to the appropriate institutions by the 15th following the month worked.
You will have access to your Vacation Fund at any time with an ATM card. You can take out your money when funds are available or leave to build up for a Vacation, Christmas, or a Sunny Day fund.
