Hi
For early and speedy processing of PF, authority needs cancelled cheque Zerox x copy or if not possible MICR code of the banker (Banker which mentioned in the withdrawal form, hence there is no issue in the matter.

Dear Sir, u r wright there is no harm in giving photocopy of cancelled cheque and department is asking the same to control of misuse of the funds.

Dear Sir,
It is not crossed cheques, but cancelled cheque. It is for establishing correctness of your bank account. It also checks for MICR Codes printed on the cheque which is must for remitting your dues through ECS. Crossed cheques have altogether different importance in banking. The cheque need not be signed.

Hi! Arvind,
You can very well go ahead by submitting a cancelled cheque of the bank account that you wish the amount to be transferred in.In FORM 19 (for PF) & 10C(Pension Fund) there is also a column for the Bank Account wherein you have to mention the Bank account as well as the complete address.This cheque will serve as a verification as well as confirmation of your bank account.
