How many days before i can encash cheque?
Unless the cheque itself says otherwise, you should be able to cash it immediately.Even if it does have a later date on it, in the US, banks are not actually required by law not to cash "post-dated" cheques, though they generally do try not to. If you post-date a cheque, you should regard it as a polite reminder to the person you make the cheque out to not to cash/deposit it before then, not as an absolute barrier to them doing so.
What is meant by post dated cheque?
Every cheque has a date that has to be entered in it that signifies the date from which the cheque is a valid instrument. So, if I were to issue a cheque today that you can encash anytime from now, I will put todays date as the cheque date. However, if I want you to cash it only after Dec, I will put 1st Jan 2014 as the cheque date. This means that, up until 31st Dec 2013, the cheque is worthless and you can cash it to get money only on or after 1st Jan. This is a postdated cheque because the cheque date lies in the future.

Yes. The date that is mentioned in a cheque signifies the date from which a cheque is valid. So, it does not matter if it is a Saturday or a Sunday or a public holiday.

So, be sure to cash the cheque before the 3 month period otherwise it will become expired and is worthless.
