To participate in direct deposit, the client must complete the corresponding participation form attached to the leaflet called “Direct deposit”.
The independent sheltered adult receiving benefits may participate in direct deposit by completing the participation form attached to the leaflet specifically designed for this purpose.
In all cases, the participation form will include:
- a personal blank cheque of the designated bank account with the word “CANCELLED” written across it
OR
- an equivalent documentary evidence provided by the financial institution.
A copy of the form is accepted, but data entered and signatures must be originals.
The form must always be kept in the physical record, without weeding, even if the client cancels his or her participation in direct deposit.
