A Bank cannot ask why you are depositing cash but they can always ask, how you got the money. The bank has the right to know the source of the funds that are being deposited into an account with them. This is done to catch potential money launderers and terrorism financers. So, as long as you have a legal source of income for the cash you are depositing, you have nothing to worry about

What is a cross check?

A Crossed cheque is one that can only be deposited in an account. They cannot be encashed directly. Usually if we hand over the cheque to the teller they would verify the account details and hand over cash to us but crossed cheque's (also called account payee cheques) can only be deposited into an account. So the cash can be realized only by depositing those cheques into the account of the person on whose name the cheque is given. This is usually done to ensure safety. Only legitimate account holders can encash such cheques.
