Write Checks the Right Way
A check is a written order which tells the credit union to take money from one account and pay another person or company. Whether you\'re giving or receiving a check, it\'s important that it is filled out properly. This will help make sure the money is issued correctly. When writing a check, remember to print clearly, in ink. If you make a mistake, be sure to void the check by writing \"void\" across the whole check.
What\'s Already On The Check
When you receive checks from DCU, they already have our name and address, DCU\'s name, and a check number printed on them. The numbers at the bottom are printed in a special magnetic ink that can be read by computers. These numbers help the check get from where it is written, such as your favorite clothing store, to DCU.
What Gets Completed
The date – Fill in the actual date you write the check, be sure to include the year. You should never put a future date on your checks. A check is good for six months after it is written.
Pay to the order of – Make sure you put in the person or store\'s full name. This person or business is called the payee. This will help prevent someone from stealing the check and changing the name.
Amount box – Enter the exact dollars and cents that DCU should give the person or company.
Amount line – Write out in words the amount of the check and use a fraction for the cents. Write the word \"and\" before the cents. (e.g.: $121.64 = one hundred twenty-one and 64/100). Start writing as far left as possible and draw a line through any blank space left on the line. This stops someone from adding words to the amount.
For line (or Memo line) – This is the one part which is optional. You can make a note on this line to remind you what the check was for. If you\'re paying a bill, this is a good place to write your account number.
Signature line – Signing the check tells DCU that you\'ve approved us to pay it. Because of this, you should never sign a check until all the other parts are filled out.
On the Back
The back of the check has three sections. The top is for the payee to sign and the bottom two are for financial institutions. It is important that the payee doesn\'t write below the top section because information may become hard to read once the financial institution stamps it. This can delay payments or make it hard for the check to be returned to DCU after it is paid.
The top section is filled out by the person or company that is written in the Pay to the Order Of section (see step 2). Never sign the check until you are ready to cash or deposit it. Sign the check the same way your name is written on the front. If the person wrote your name wrong, sign it the way it is written and then sign your name correctly underneath. If you are going to deposit the whole check, you should write \"For Deposit Only\" and sign under the words. This prevents anyone else from cashing the check.
