Endorsing My Check to My Mother

How can I endorse my disability check over to my mother if I am not able to go with her to the bank?


Your mother should contact the bank to discuss the matter, and determine whether it will be willing to cash the check for her. The more established you and your mother are as bank customers, the more likely the bank will be to accommodate your needs. If you run into problems, you may need to ask that your checks are issued to your mother as a representative payee, or if that isn't possible, consider giving your mother a limited power of attorney specifically for the purpose of cashing your checks.
