Check the current status of the relevant cheque (encashed, deposited, pending, or returned) through the accounts team.

Validate the stated reason for the request against company policy and determine eligibility.

Review any outstanding dues or adverse payment history associated with the tenant account.

Confirm the cheque has not already been processed before any action is taken.
