Deposit Slip

When you write a deposit slip for a check you first write out the date, you then write down the amount of money of the check on the bracket then write it again in the boxes. If you have cash you're depositing too you write down the amount in the boxes in the cash column. Then you add those up and write the amount in your sub total. If you want to receive cash back that won't go into your account, you write the amount in the cash back column. You then subtract the cash you want from your sub total then write the amount left in your last column. The cash you want back has to be less than your sub total. Also, you must sign your name on the line under the date. If you don't want cash back you don't have to sign.

How to Write a Check


When writing a check you need to fill it our properly or it won't be valid. The steps are:
  1. Where the date goes
  2. Who you're paying the check to
  3. The amount of money, write kind of big so no numbers are added
  4. Write out the amount of money with the amount of cents over 100 and then add a line on the rest of the line so that an extra amount is added
  5. Sign your name
  6. What the check is for
Endorsing a Check
There are three different ways to endorse a check depending on what it is you want to do.


 The first way is to just sign your name the way it is on the front of the check if it's made out to you. Only do so if you're ready to cash or deposit it otherwise if you lose it, someone else can cash it and get your money.


 
 
 
 
 
The second way is called a Special Endorsement, this means you're giving the money to someone else, sometimes called "signing the check over to someone". You will write "pay to the order of(person's name)"
 
 
 
 
The last way of endorsing a check is called a Restrictive Endorsement, it makes your check safer if you're sending it by mail. You will write "for deposit only" and this means the bank can only deposit it into your account, it cannot be cashed.
