Most checks become stale dated -- which means they cannot be cashed -- after 6 months, though some checks last for a year (business checks). Some checks may have an even shorter life (the check would say "Void after ________"). If your check is stale dated, it is likely your bank will refuse it or, if they accept it, that the drawee bank will return it against your account.

You should request a new, currently dated check from the original maker.
