Fill out a direct deposit form
When to use this goal
For students starting a paid job or work program who are handed a direct deposit form. Needs copying numbers from a sample check or bank letter; present levels decide fit, not grade.
- Baseline
- Run the routine at least 3 times with the same materials before setting a target. Mark each step independent, prompted (note the prompt), or not done, and count only independent steps. Practice uses sample documents and practice or demo accounts only; the student's real PIN, passwords, and account numbers are never used or written down at school.
- Tips
- Teach that account numbers go only on forms from the employer, never in reply to a text or email.
- Limits
- The real form is completed with the family or job coach. Practice uses sample documents and practice or demo accounts only; the student's real PIN, passwords, and account numbers are never used or written down at school.
