HOW TO POLITELY SEND CHECKS BACK TO FAMILY?
Some of my family has sent me checks unsolicited meditative we need a monetary assistance. It is not indispensable as well as we would cite not to accept a money. Is it bold to send a appreciate we label with a uncashed check inside. we will not money them so is it respectful to send it behind so they know.

First I commend you on not taking the money that was sent for you without you even asking.. I know a few people that would take it just to spend it on crap!! Bravo.. I want you in my family…
I think it is actually very polite to send a thank you card back with the check inside. I wouldn’t just tear it up and tell them, and I wouldn’t just send the check back by itself. A thank you card is very sweet and later if for any reason you actually do need financial help, family would be more than willing to send you what you need because of the responsibility you show by sending the check back and the generousity you show by sending it back with a thank you card. Very polite and sweet…

I would tell them that I didnt need the checks but maybe so and so may need it more than me .But I’d be offended if I got a returned check back. Wait a while that way they will see that you really didnt need the money and if you are so well off then help someone who isnt .There are many people who are living day to day .I’d keep the money and let them know that you appreciated it .Giving it back is kinda hurtful.
You said “them” meaning more than one .I think you should
tell them that you really dont need the money . It sounds like they want to help .

Just say to them that you are very grateful but you are OK with your finances and that you are returning the cheques. I don’e know where the unpoliteness would come in… at least you’re being honest and not grabbing the money even if you dont need it !! By the way, I’m struggling at the moment, so, if there’s any spare cash going begging – look no further – I will be a very grateful recipient. lol

This is not rude at all. It is a sign of maturity. I would send a thank you card with a hand written note inside thanking them for their concern but letting them know that you are financially capable of paying for yourself. Let the thanks ooze from your pen and return the check. Good for you!

DO NOT SEND IT BACK!
If you don’t need it, the most polite way is to call them and ask them if they are sure about it. And tell then that you are still in good shape and will not cash the check out. DO NOT FORGET to thank them and tell them that you will ask for help if you need it.

You can just send them a very nice, heartfelt thank you card and explain that you appreciate the gesture greatly you don’t need the money right now and will not be cashing the checks.

You will really hurt their feelings.You may need them one day.Put the money in the bank and tell them not to send anymore checks or they will get ripped up.

Just send the checks back with a note thanking them for thinking of you, but you are not in a financial crisis at this time.
