When you go to pick up your OSAP (general release) instead of bringing a void cheque, could you bring a "New Direct Deposit Form" from your bank?

Also, is the cheque even needed if you are going to send all of the 60% entitlement to McMaster directly? (i.e. none of the osap money is going into your bank account this term).

Thanks

hey i wuz confused abt the same thing so i took both the form and the cheque. the new direct deposit form works finee, all they need is ur transit number, bank id and accoun number which should all be found at the top right of your form, they didn ask for the cheque

thanks, but there isn't a bank id, only a transit no, inst no, and a n account no on my form(it's from TD canada trust). is that still ok?

yeh i hav TD too lol, your inst no. (on the form) is your bank id (on the OSAP form)

thanks so much! i was worried b/c i ordered some cheques but they arent here yet. but u reassured me that the deposit form is good enough (TD was telling me the same thing but i wanted a 2nd opinion). thanks again!

Just out of curiosity, how long does it take to pick-up OSAP? I'll be picking it up after labor day

i went early release it took 40 minutes to go through whole process (3steps). add in super duper long lineups it'll take couple hours im guessing
