Signature (s)  - Missing signature or signature missing returns are common where the signature on a check is not present on the face of the check.

This happens when the maker does not sign the check.  Some checks can be returned for signature missing when two signatures are required to write a check on a particular account and only one signature appears on the check.

A check with signature missing cannot be re-deposited until the signature is gathered.
