It's possible that you may not even be able to cash a check at the bank of origin. The only sure way to cash it is to take to a bank that you already, yourself, have an account with.

If there is no money in a checking account can you cash a check?

There are a couple ways to answer this question. 1) IF A CHECK IS WRITTEN OUT TO YOU.. and you would like to cash it but have no money in YOUR account: Unless it is a government check or a payroll check you will not be able to cash it. Most banks now require you to provide your Social Security Number when cashing it instead of your account number (since there is no money in your account to "hold the check" against.) IF you still need to cash it you can always bring it to the bank that it was "drawn off of" on every check it says what bank that persons account is at. 2) IF A CHECK IS WRITTEN YOU TO YOU.. and you would like to cash it but the person whose account it's coming from does not have enough money (or no money) you'll still be able to cash it, however the person whose account its coming from will be hit with an overdraft fee. Also, when you bring it to your bank to cash it and it is "drawn off" a different bank the money may be drawn out of YOUR OWN account. Banks dont like giving out money for free. I highly suggest you bring it to the bank it was drawn off of to avoid any problems. 2) IF YOU WROTE OUT A CHECK.. and dont have enough money in your account the check might go through, but you will be hit with a big overdraft fee for going below $0.

No. Take the check to the bank that it is written on. Some banks will charge you a fee for cashing the check if you don't have an account with the bank, but they will cash the check.

Do you have to cash your check from your job at the bank?

I guess Yes. Banks are the only place you can cash a check. Since it is your paycheck from the job, the check will be from a bank account of your employer. So to cash it you either need to visit a bank that you have an account or visit the bank that issued the check to get the cash from the check.

Cash a check?

You can cash a check at your bank or financial institution so long as there is recourse in your account. If you don't have an account, try the institution the check is drawn on. If all else fails, I believe small loan companies like check and go or check into cash cash checks for a fee. Hope this helps (:

How do you cash a cashiers check if you have no account and the check is from out of state?

To cash a cashiers check if you have no account and the check is from out of state, you need to go to a business that specializes in cashing checks. You don't need an account there, and it shouldn't matter if a cashier's check is from out of state, since that type of check guarantees the funds. You can also go to a local branch of the bank that issued the cashier's check and cash it, if there is one near you.
