The check would first have to be endorsed, that is, signed, by the wife before being deposited. The endorsement is proof that the wife has agreed to this by signing the check over to her husband. An unendorsed check will not be accepted.
No. Only the owner/holder of the checking account can use the account. Even the spouse of the account holder cannot use it. In case the spouse wishes to use it, they should either be a joint holder of the account or should have a legal power of attorney to do so. Even in cases where the wife is dead, her husband as the legal heir to her property can use the account.
A wife can deposit her husbands paycheck if the husband has signed the back of the check. The wife must also sign the back under the husbands name in order to deposit the check.
no
Only if the account has her a a signatory. Otherwise it is forgery and illegal
Call you banks customers service and see. My bank allows my wife to deposit my payroll checks without my signature into our account.
No, not without being on his account...or actually having approved access to it by him.
then it would be okay
Generally, you fill out the deposit slip and hand it to a teller. Policies may vary. Ask your bank for complete details.
No. In saying this I am assuming the account is not a joint account with him and he has forged your signature. If he has done this he has committed a crime and you should go to the police and tell the bank.
No she can't as a matter of fact without his written permission she can't even get general information about that account. This is what I found to be amazing, if this couple has a joint savings account, but the husband's name is the only one on the checking account, he is the only one that can legally transfer money from the savings account to the checking account. It also works this way if there is a joint checking account and money needs to be transferred from the joint checking account, to the savings account with only the husband's name on it, he is the only one that can move money from one account to the other. I am a bank manager and I know this is more information than you asked for, but when I have to explain this to couples, it often leads to a very heated discussion between them in my office. I live in Virginia and I can only answer for Virginia. I hope you found this answer helpful.
A joint account holder cannot be removed from the account, the account will have to be closed.
The estate will have to cash the savings bond in and then distribute the earnings.
yes, the wife gets some money from the husband's paycheck. alimony
