How do i endorse a check?

Answer 1

Excellent question. As a banker, I appreciate you taking the time to research this!

An endorsement is the signature on the back of the check. If there is no specific place, you always turn the check over and sign on the end where the name of the person who wrote you the check is printed on the front.

THE IMPORTANT THING IS: The check should be endorsed exactly as it is made out to you. If you name is John Smith, but they wrote it to J. Smith, sign it "J. Smith" and then "John Smith" underneath it.

Good question!

Answer 2

Just sign the back, but do so at the bank in front of the teller, also today most banks will not cash second party checks, that is when you sign the check over to somebody else, unless the other person you are signing the check over to has an account there, in most cases they will cash a second party check when both people are present with identification. That is a way to prevent fraud and to get accounts for the bank,
