You don’t have to write the words dollars or cents, since the word dollars at the end of the line means anything you write will be considered to be dollars or a fraction of a dollar. The key to writing a check with cents is writing the word “and” then putting the cents as a fraction of a dollar.

Alterations. The bank is liable to paying a check that has been materially altered.

For example, the recipient of the check may change the amount from $10 to $100.

Will a bank accept a check without the amount written out?

Banks usually won’t accept checks without a legal written line, because it’s the part that they actually read. The number part is for convenience and kind of a second opinion if the letters are hard to read. You should contact the IRS about this. They might ask you to send them another check ASAP.

What happens when check amounts don’t match?
