Forms / Direct deposit authorization
Fill out a direct deposit authorization form
The form your employer or payroll provider gives you so your pay goes into your bank account.
How it works
- Open the form your employer or payroll provider sent you (usually a PDF).
- Open EkaSetu PDF and choose the file, or drop it on the window. Click a blank to type in it, or use Detect fields if the PDF has none.
- Add your signature as a picture of your signature, if the form needs one.
- Download your filled copy.
Who fills it in
There is no single government form. Your employer or payroll provider has its own, so use the one they send you.
What goes on the form
- Your name and employee details, as the form asks.
- Your bank's name, the routing number and your account number (copy them from your bank).
- The account type, checking or savings, and how much to deposit if the form asks.
- Sign and date, then return it the way your employer says.
What stays on your computer
Your PDF is read in your browser's memory. Its name, text and pages are not sent to EkaSetu. Downloads are made on your computer, and the file on your disk is not changed until you save or download. If you choose Save to EkaSetu, or sign with a record on a paid plan, that file is uploaded; the app says so before it happens.
Questions
Is my file uploaded?
No, not unless you choose. The file is opened in your browser and stays on your computer unless you choose Save to EkaSetu or sign with a record.
Do I need an account?
No. Reading, filling and signing with your own signature are free and need no account.
Does this tell me how to answer the questions?
No. EkaSetu PDF helps you fill in the blanks. What to write is for the form's instructions and, where needed, the person who asked you for it.
Does Fill with my details enter my bank numbers?
No. Fill with my details never fills a Social Security number, tax ID, bank or card number or date of birth. You type those yourself, and they stay on your computer.
