Check list refers to the points which you are requried to look into to verify if the IC is operating or not. For e.g the checklist may contain the itmes to be checked such as FA, cash, inventories,investments etc..
An IC Questionnaire contains a series of questions with Yes, No & N/A. The answers in the affirmative as per the quest is marked as Yes, if a particular step is not being performed then it shud be marked as No & if the step is N/S to the process then it shud be marked as N/A.

Checklist is basically for audit staff.
Eg: Whether cash balance checked or not etc.
Questionnaire is for clients staff.
