Each bank has different policies, so to find out the best answer, you should check with the bank where you are attempting to deposit the check.
If they will allow you to deposit your paycheck into someone else's checking account, they will likely request that:
- Both you and the account holder sign the check, in the presence of the teller
- For you, the person to whom the paycheck is payable, to present unexpired, valid photo ID confirming that you are the person who you say you are
Alternatives
- The obvious: get your own bank account and deposit your check there.
- Cash your paycheck, which can be done at the bank on which the check is drawn, at a check cashing service such as Amscot, or at certain banks or grocery stores that offer check cashing services.

Can a person be on a checking account for deposit only but can not write check on the account?
Really? Is this a serious question? From my experience anyone can make a deposit into a checking account. All they need is the account number, nothing more. Endorsing the check to be deposited with "For Deposit Only," filling out a deposit check and handing it to a teller will do the trick. Never have I been asked for identification when depositing money into an account.
