Based in Amman, Jordan, The Housing Bank provides statements to its customers as PDF documents in online banking. Upload the statement PDF below and download an OFX-formatted export of the statement's transactions — extracted, normalized and reconciled first.
This .ofx file carries the reconciled The Housing Bank transactions in standard OFX structure — the format to choose when your software's import menu lists OFX, QFX or 'bank statement file' rather than CSV.
The main use is any workflow that asks for a 'bank statement file' rather than a spreadsheet. Every conversion is checked against the statement itself: where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the extracted transactions must add up to them, or the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked. A statement whose layout the reader cannot parse is reported honestly — never passed off as converted.
The check itself is simple arithmetic, applied without exception: add the opening balance to every extracted transaction and compare the result with the closing balance printed on the The Housing Bank statement, then walk the running balances row by row. A dropped row, a duplicated row or a misread digit breaks the chain and is flagged at the row where it breaks, with the expected and printed balances shown side by side.
Two habits make The Housing Bank statements easier to work with. First, convert the issued PDF rather than a portal screen print — print views paginate differently and can drop the balance lines the check needs. The closing zone carries the balances and any fees or interest summaries; it is the closing zone the reconciliation check answers to, and the first place to look when a conversion is flagged.
Download all twelve periods first and convert them as one batch, then work through the reconciliation results month by month in order. Fix flagged months before importing anything: it is far easier to resolve a difference against twelve tidy statements than inside a year of mixed postings.
If your software offers both OFX import and a live bank feed for the same account, use one or the other for a given period, never both: the same transactions arriving twice is the most common cause of a doubled month.
These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.
Tip: download statements as the periods close rather than in a year-end scramble; portals sometimes archive older periods behind request forms.
Save the statement as a PDF from The Housing Bank online banking, add it to the converter above, and take the an OFX-formatted export of the statement's transactions it produces. Extraction, column normalization and the reconciliation check all happen before the download is offered.
Like most banks in Jordan, The Housing Bank prints dates as the order printed on the statement itself and amounts with the grouping printed on the statement itself. Conversion normalizes dates to an unambiguous form in the output while leaving the figures themselves untouched.
Where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the converter adds up the extracted transactions and compares the result with the statement itself. If the numbers do not tie, the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked — a failed check is never shown as a success.
Yes. Scans and photo-based PDFs are read with OCR and marked as OCR-extracted. The reconciliation check applies identically; on a poor scan it is the check that tells you whether the read can be trusted.
No. There is no sign-up: upload the PDF, check the reconciliation result, download the file. Uploaded files and exports are deleted automatically within 15 minutes.
The statement PDF. It is the issued document and it carries the opening and closing balances the reconciliation check verifies against; a portal CSV has the transactions but nothing to prove them against.
No. The converter changes layout, not currency: figures stay in JOD exactly as The Housing Bank printed them.
Yes — convert each account's statements separately so each one reconciles against its own balances, then combine the exports in your software if you need a single view.
No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
