Depending on the current state of your MyStockFund brokerage account, MSFS will assign a status to your account. You can view your account status from your Member Home page. The account status controls your online account activities in which you can participate. For example, once you open a MyStockFund brokerage account, you may access the Member site, set up your AutoVest Schedule, research stocks, etc. However, you will not be able to engage in MyStockFund transactions such as purchasing or selling stocks until your account and Cash Link are both "Active." You will be notified via email that your account and Cash Link have been activated. For more information about a specific status, see: Pending, Active, Restricted, or Closed.
