Everyone above is right, he can sign it over to you- BUT - he needs to go to the bank with you to deposit the item. The teller will ID him after he signs the check over to you. The reason is because they have no way of verifying his signature without seeing his identification. With all the fraud that happens these days, banks must do everything they can to protect themselves and their customers. Take him to the bank with you and you'll have no problem. |

He will have to endorse it on the back and you will have to endorse right under his name. You better get him to endorse it, you wouldn't want to get in trouble for forgery, now would you? |

You can if he endorses the check over to you. On the back, he can write:
Pay to the order of <your name>, then sign underneath that.
Then you sign below that. |

It can be in his name, if he signs it over to you. |

Actually it depends on the type of account you have, how long you have had it and your banks policies.
My old bank use to tell me "NO" and then told me that we both had to go in with IDs, but if I just deposited it into my ATM then it would clear.
Call your banks 800# and ask. |

No it does not. But the check better be good or you will incur a service charge for a bounced check. |

Yes, you can. But he has to sign the check on the back to endorse it. It would be good if he also wrote "deposit only to the credit of 'your name' " under his own signature. |

If he gave it to you to deposit into your account he has to sign it and then list his account number under his signature and then you do the same underneath it. |

If he signs it over to you then you can deposit it into your account. In order to do this your dad must sign the back "Pay to the order of (your name)" then sign it himself. After that you should sign the check before depositing it. |

It all depends on the type of check it is and if your financial institution accepts third prty chks. Normally they will review your account status before deciding to accept it. Now it is very important to remember that if you do deposit that check into your account you are taking the responsibility for it. This means that if for some reason this check is returned as NSF or stop payment, ect. your account will be debited the amount of the check. If you are familar with the company it is coming from it should be fine, but if you at all feel uncomfortable and you do decide to deposit the check don't spend the funds till about 5-11 business days later. This should be enough time for the check to pay on the other hand. Now goverment checks and insurance check can't be 3rd prty so if this is the case you won't be able to negotiate it. |

It helps if your name is on the check.
No, if your dads name is on the check, you can not deposit into your account. The banks are funny about this kind of thing, but if he signs it over to you, you're good. |
