If a check is NSF
| Thu, 10-23-2008 - 10:41am |
I sold something and took a check for it...I am wondering if there is any sort of general amount of time a check takes to clear. I deposited it on the weekend so it would get taken from the ATM this past Monday. I doubt it will bounce, but it is a long-way-out-town check and I am just wondering how long I should watch my account before I can just accept the check is okay. Is a week long enough to wait before I can feel like the person's bank is not going to reverse the check?

I would give it 10 to 14 banking days.
