What is a FedWire IMAD/OMAD number?

An Input/Output Message Accountability Data (IMAD/OMAD) number is a unique number assigned to a wire transfer processed through the Federal Reserve Bank’s FedwireService. An IMAD/OMAD number can be used to investigate and track wire transfers.

This number is generated to track your wire transfer. The IMAD/OMAD information is made up of the following information:

YYYYMMDDXXXXXXXX012345

1. Wire transfer date: YYYYMMDD or MMDD
2. Source identifier: 8 Alpha or Alpha-Numeric characters
3. Sequence number: 6 digits 

If you contact ONE to track the status of a wire transfer, it is likely that a Customer Service agent will ask you for the IMAD/OMAD.

Where can I find my IMAD/OMAD number?

The originating bank will be able to provide the IMAD/OMAD number after the funds have been wired. You may need to speak with a  bank manager or a dedicated wire department for assistance.
