How To Write A Check

If you don’t know how to write a check, you are not alone. There are many reasons why people do not know how to write a check.

Some of the reasons are:

• They were never taught in school
• Their parents never taught them how to write a check
• They are new to this country
• Their parents, spouse, or someone else has always taken care of their finances for them
• They never needed a checking account until now
• They had a checking account a long time ago and have forgotten how to use one
