Back in 2006 I opened an IRRA account through Bank of America and administered by XXXX XXXX ( Account # XXXX ), transferring my retirement funds from my previous Employer, XXXX. I am now employed by XXXX and wished to roll the money into the State of Washington Deferred Compensation Program ( DCP ). I started this process back on XXXX/XXXX/2015 but continue to encounter roadblocks. 

The state has requested the funds be sent over as a check, see attachment, per their procedures. However, Merrill Lynch claims they can only transfer funds only after I receive a XXXX XXXX XXXX. According to the State, they are not a banking institution so they do n't use or provide Signature Stamps. I 've never heard of such a stamp but the people at Merrill Lynch assured me I could get XXXX from any Bank of America. I went to XXXX different banks ( XXXX in XXXX XXXX and XXXX in XXXX ) and all indicated they could n't give me this stamp. I was then directed to check with another institution ( XXXX XXXX in XXXX ) and they said although they could provide a stamp they do n't do it with a document stating that a stamp was required. 
I 've left numerous messages with staff at Merrill Lynch ( XXXX and XXXX XXXX ) but have been unable to reach them for further assistance. I 've believe that I have been patient in trying to move my funds from XXXX organization to another. ( See attachment ).
