How to Balance Your Checkbook

  1. Compare your monthly bank statement against entries written in your checkbook.
  2. Put a check mark next to each transaction in your checkbook registry as reflected on your statement.
  3. Find the ending balance on your bank statement.
  4. Add any deposits not checked off to the ending balance.
  5. From this new ending balance, subtract any recent withdrawals, checks or debits listed in your checkbook that are not checked off.
  6. The final amount should match your checkbook ending balance. If not, repeat this procedure until your checkbook balances.

Helpful Hints If You Don't Balance

  • Recheck your addition, subtraction, and corrections made in your checkbook register and on your reconcilement form.
  • Verify the carryover balance from page to page in your checkbook register.
  • Be sure you have deducted any service charges from your checkbook register.
  • Verify the printed amount located on the bottom right hand corner of the cancelled check or any deposit slip with the amount listed in your checkbook register.
