Hello, 5 months do not comprise an integer number of quarters.

So, we need to know the bank policy for this non-traditional case.



Go to the bank and ask them.

Or call them by phone. Or contact by Email.

May be, there are some other ways to communicate with them (via their web-site, for example . . . )
