How long before an uncashed check is void 90 days 180 days unlimited?
An uncashed check usually says to cash within 30-90 days. After that time, a bank does not have to honor it. However, it can choose to do so.
What does void mean for a check?
That just means that you don't use the check. You might mark "Void" on it or tear it in two. That is different from a "canceled" check, meaning that it was already used and processed by the bank.
What to do if you passed the void date on a check?
The only thing you can do is, you can request the original person who issued you the check to re-issue you a fresh check. After the expiry date (usually 90 days from date of issue) the check is worthless and has no value. So the only way you can get paid is if the issuer of the check gives you a new one.
Why are checks void after 6 months?
Because that is the rule. If someone does not cash a check paid out to him for that long, probably he has either lost it or does not wish to cash it. So in such cases, to prevent illegal activities (like a stolen check being cashed by a fraudster) there is a validity date associated with each check. In most cases it is 90 days and in some countries it is up to 180 days.
Can you use whiteout on a personal bank check if you made a mistake on it?
Probably not. Any alteration to the check will usually make it unacceptable, since anyone could put white-out on a check to change it. The thing to do would be to write "VOID" across your check, shred it, and start a new one.

What happens to an auto insurance check if it is not cashed?

Is your payroll check preprinted with void in 6 month still good after 6 months If you take it to the company that you used to worked for will they reissue another check?
No, the actual check is not valid for cashing after 6 months. Yes, you will receive an accounts payable check from the company who issued the payroll check for the NET amount.
Is a check void if not cashed in 90 days?
A check that is older than 90 days (or 180 days depending on the Country) is considered a stale or expired check. It is worthless and carries no value. You cannot cash such a check. Since the check is expired, the check issuing bank will not pay for it
A payroll check states it is void after 90 days. what should the payroll department do?
The payroll department should take possession of the stale check, deface and void it, issue a new check in the same amount as the old one, and give the new check to the employee.
How long can you keep a check before cashing it at a check cashing store?
Most checks become stale dated (meaning they cannot be negotiated) after six months. Some checks, especially business checks and U.S. Treasury checks, have a longer life of up to one year. And some checks, which would specifically have a "VOID AFTER" or similar notice on the front, expire more quickly.
How can an outdated payroll check eleven years old be cashed?

What is a sentence with the word void?
She had to void the check because the amount was wrong. They asked to void the agreement. When her boyfriend broke up with her, it left a huge void in her life.
Is it legal to preprint a check with void after 30 days?
Yes. Pre-printing a check with the notation "Void after 30 days" is permitted by law. However, most banks will pay the check after the 30 days have expired. The reason is that banks are under no legal obligation to reject a check merely because the drafter wrote "void after [#] days" on the check. Restrictive legends or limitations such as "void after 90 days" or "not to exceed $500" have no legal effect. Once a check has been outstanding for more than six months it is considered "stale." Contrary to common belief, this too does not mean a bank will reject the check. It merely removes the legal obligation upon which the bank owed to its customer to pay a valid check. After that time, a bank may pay the check, provided payment is made "in good faith." But let's say your bank rejects the check. You ask the person who originally wrote the check to reissue it. That person refuses because it's after the 30 days. Now a separate legal issue arises: Must the original drafter of the check, who wrote "void after 90 days," reissue another check which is after the 90 day period? In other words, is the underlying debt extinguished? In most circumstances, a court would not favorably treat the drafter of the check who is confiscating or relinquishing the money of the other person without compensation. That's called forfeiture and the law abhors forfeitures. Let's say your employer drafted a payroll check and issued it with the notation "Void After 90 Days." After the 90-day period lapses, you ask your employer to reissue another check but they refuse. Would a court allow an employer to withhold payroll to its employee merely because the employee was not diligent in depositing a payroll check? Probably not, but since there is little to no case law on point, it is anyone's guess how a court might rule. Until such a case reaches a reviewing court level, you'll have to stick to basic principles of law.
