Subquery in Where Clause of LINQ statement

So I tried to follow this example to have a sub-query in the where clause of this LINQ query.

var innerquery =
    from app in context.applications
    select new { app.app_id };

IEnumerable<postDatedCheque> _entityList = context.postDatedCheques
    .Where(e => innerquery.Contains(e.appSancAdvice.application.app_id));

The objective was to select those records from postDatedCheques that have app_id in applications table.

But I am getting following erros inside the where clause:

Delegate 'System.Func' does not take 1 arguments

Cannot convert lambda expression to type 'string' because it is not a delegate type

'System.Linq.IQueryable' does not contain a definition for 'Contains' and the best extension method overload 'System.Linq.ParallelEnumerable.Contains(System.Linq.ParallelQuery, TSource)' has some invalid arguments

Instance argument: cannot convert from 'System.Linq.IQueryable' to 'System.Linq.ParallelQuery'

What am I coding incorrect?

I think a simple join would do the job. It will filter out the 'cheques' that have no relative 'app':

  var _entitylist = 
    from cheque in context.postDatedCheques
    join app in context.applications on cheque.appSancAdvice.application equals app
    select cheque;

Edit:

Solutions using a .Contains(...) will be translated into a SQL IN statement. Which will be very inefficient. Linq join is translated into SQL INNER JOIN which is very efficient if your DB schema is well trimmed (FKs, index)

What about?

IEnumerable<postDatedCheque> _entityList = context.postDatedCheques.Where(
     e => context.applications.Any(
          x => e.appSancAdvice.application.app_id == x.app_id));

And if you want to use two statements, set the first as an expression function.

Expression<Func<string, bool>> innerQuery = 
          x => context.applications.Any(y => y.app_id == x);

IEnumerable<postDatedCheque _entityList = 
  context.postDatedCheques.Where(
    x => innerQuery(x.appSancAdvice.application.app_id));

innerquery is a IQueryable of anonymous type that contains an app_id .
The line Contains(e.appSancAdvice.application.app_id) doesn't make sense since e.appSancAdvice.application.app_id and the anonymous type are not the same type.

Simply do:

var _entityList = context.postDatedCheques
                         .Where(e => 
                            context.applications
                                   .Select(a => a.app_id)
                                   .Contains(e.appSancAdvice.application.app_id));
