Dear Srikanth,
I can make templates for your bank if I get hard copies of the cheque.
Without the hard copy I cannot take measurements of the fields and do test
prints

Dear Prashant,
Great contribution to the community of visually challenged. By the way
may
I please know whether can you make templates for international banks? And
also I solved my signature issue by using stencils and stamp. Here in
united
states, they are accepting stamps for signing on checks. . So could I
request you to make templates for my bank which is federal credit union?
Thank you. regards,

Dear all,
I hope you people have seen the cheque printing templates I had designed
earlier and which are being used widely for writing cheques.
More information on this is available at
http://www.prashant.myehome.in/down.html#cheque
Further, there is a workaround for signing at the correct place on the
cheque.
The cover page of the cheque book is generally made of thick paper. Ask
someone to cut a window on it just at the place where you are supposed to
sign. It is generally towards the bottom right corner.
Now you can easily feel this square shaped hole in the cover page and sign
between it. Then tear the first cheque leaf and put it in the printer and
use my templates to print the payee and amount details at the correct
places..
It is doable with little practice. many many visually impaired and even
non-disabled are using it for writing cheques.
Regards,
Prashant

Deer all,
All valuable opinions on this issue! I am wondering anyone can tell how
blind person can locate the proper or correct place on the check to sign
though we have some kind of metal signature card? And also, how we can
find
the place to write the amount? Thank you. regards,

Hi Prashant
Use of seal or stamp for signature or a combination is generally not
permitted on financial documents where a financial transaction takes
place
as a result of this. However E signatures and even signature stamps are
allowed on cheques, premium receipts in organized set ups such a LIC etc
but not for individual clients.
What u suggest can be proposed to the banking industry as a viable
option.
The VH community has to be very cautious before taking such decision,
though
this seems workable for now!
If systems are created for checks and balances and it is declared as
valid
for acceptance then it can be allowed for VI customers for sure! This
can
come under reasonable accommodation. Law is not a barrier in this.
Subhash

For the purpose of getting a unique signature which is difficult to copy
I
had seen someone use a specially designed pen which had a very small
rubber
stamp on the other tip of the pen. He used to sign on the paper and then
fixed the stamp which carried his name. So, his signature was a
combination
of his writing with the pen which was not always identical but it also
had
his name stamped on it which was always identical.
I want to know if this type of signature is legally acceptable? If it is
then it may be a good workaround for many for signing cheques and other
documents.

Yes it can happen theoretically but may not happen generally. You tend
to
sign a cheque at home or at your desk in office. You will not generally
do it in a very public place.
As I have mentioned in my previous mail you must be careful of the
close
friends and relatives first. I cannot tell you how important this is.
Please be careful and I mean very careful.

Dear Kanchan sir,
Thank you for confirming this. I wonder whether someone can prepare
the
same metal card. People can see when we are using it right? How can we
design in a unique way so that others can't copy even if they see the
metal piece. Regards,

Amit,
What you have done is good.
My only caution to you and everyone on this list is that yes you may
lose it
and some one else can use it.
Please be very careful of the immediate family and friends. Fraud and
cheating happens when people close to us take advantage. Just trust me
when
I say that a lot of us are vulnerable in our situation and those who
we
depend upon tend to cheat us.
We are careful of outsiders but we become lax when we deal with pare
