Are you looking for a free Direct Deposit Authorization Form?
If you’ve searched on Google for these forms, you may have found a lot of free options.
Unfortunately, most of them are poorly designed and don’t look professional. Some forms allow you to fill them out online, but when you try to print, you’ll be asked to create an account or purchase a subscription.
Others let you fill them out, but you can’t edit the form or add more fields because they’re in PDF format.
That’s why I created this article, where I’ll share 4 free Direct Deposit Authorization Forms that you can fully edit as needed.
You can also fill out the form online, and the best part is that all 4 form templates are 100% free!
How to use the Form
To edit the form, you need to make a copy for yourself. Since these forms are created in Google Docs, you’ll need a Google account first.
You can click on the “Get this template” button to go to the template page, then click on the “USE TEMPLATE” button located at the top right of the page to make a copy.
From there, you can edit the form as needed. You can also print the form as-is and fill it out by hand.
Direct Deposit Authorization Form Design-1
This form is a simple one-page document that includes all the essential details, such as employee information, bank information, deposit instructions, and authorization (signature and date).
There is also a small note at the end asking the employee to attach a voided check. The checkboxes in this form are not clickable.
If you are filling out the form online, to check a box, simply place the cursor where you want to insert a checked box, then go to Insert > Special characters. In the pop-up window, search for “Ballot” on the right panel, and from the left panel, select the checked box to insert it into the form.
Direct Deposit Authorization Form Design-2
This form is a standard Direct Deposit Authorization Form commonly used in the U.S.
It includes employee information, account information, authorization statement, a signature line, and a space at the end to attach a voided check or a deposit slip.
Direct Deposit Authorization Form Design-3
This form is very similar to the second form template. The only difference is that I changed the table colors from white to black, and the title text is now white to make it stand out.
Other than that, the form is exactly the same.
