Banks Open on New Year’s Day 2023
New Year’s Day is a Federal Reserve bank holiday, so most banks will be closed Jan. 1, 2023.
Keep in mind, however, that many financial institutions have online and mobile banking options that you’ll still be able to access — even if your local branch is closed.
How To Access Your Money If Your Bank Is Closed
Online banking and ATMs allow you to access your funds even if your bank is closed. Many ATMs are open 24/7, and many bank branches even have drive-thru ATMs that are open when the bank itself is closed.
If you need to purchase a money order, options are still available. The trick is finding a provider that stays open long enough for you to complete the transaction. For example, Walmart sells money orders at its Supercenter and Neighborhood Market stores, which will be open on the New Year’s holidays.
