Yes, a cashier's check typically needs to clear before the funds are available for withdrawal.
Assuming you try depositing a cashiers check from another bank into your bank account, it is unlikely to clear that same day. Even if your bank makes the funds available to you in a day or two, even that does not mean the check has necessarily cleared. I asked this question of an employee at a major bank at which I have an account (because I want to sell some large-ticket items for substantial amounts of money to a private party). She basically said, when the cashiers check actually clears depends on the bank that issued it. Even if your bank makes the funds available to you within a couple of days due to regulations imposed on them, the check may not actually clear (due to fraud or whatever). Your best bet is to physically visit the issuing bank, show them ID to prove who you are, and get them to cash the check immediately. They will then remove the funds from the account in question, and issue you a check from the bank directly. That new check will be essentially as good as cash.
Typically it will take take 2 business days for the funds to be withdrawn from the account on which the check is written, however it will take another 1-2 days before the funds become available in the account to which the check was deposited.
You can cash a check at a different bank if the check was drawn on that bank. Some banks will cash a check drawn on a different bank but funds will not be available right away. They will wait for the check to clear.
In Halifax, checks typically take about 3 to 5 business days to clear. However, this can vary depending on factors such as the type of check and the banks involved. It's advisable to check with Halifax directly for specific details regarding your situation. Additionally, funds may not be immediately available for withdrawal even after the check clears.
The time it takes for Wells Fargo to clear a check depends on the history of the person who wrote the check, how much the check was written for and the time or the year the check was written.

The time it will take a check drawn on MCU to clear is about 10 days. It is usually before that time but that is the average time given.
This entirely depends on your bank, but generally, no. A check will either clear entirely or be declined for non-sufficient funds (NFF). Banks generally will not clear the available balance in the account and decline the rest -- it's all or nothing.
A cashier's check has guaranteed funds... any bank, etc should cash it for you. I live in Colorado Springs and I have been to 5 banks and none will cash a Cashiers Check without an account. - - - Then something is amiss: "In the United States, under Article 3 of the Uniform Commercial Code, a cashier's check is effective as a note of the bank. Also, according to Regulation CC (Reg CC) of the Federal Reserve, cashier's checks are recognized as "guaranteed funds" and amounts under $5000 are not subject to deposit holds. The length of a hold varies (2 days to 2 weeks) depending on the bank. It is not clear what length of time may pass before a bank can be held responsible for accepting a bad cashier's check." I've never heard of a bank denying a cashier's check ... perhaps you are attempting to cash it at a failing institution, or the check is fraudulent???? The reason I requested a Cashiers Check was because I was under the same impression. If you would like three of the banks I went to were TCP, Academy and Wells Fargo. I Had to open an account at Wells Fargo to get it cashed. They were the only ones that were at least nice about it. - - - Intersting. Sorry to hear about your troubles. I've never run into that before.

This will sound silly but its true: Find a bank Take the cheque and valid photo id inside. Talk to the receptionist He or She will hook you up with a person to open the account. Expect the Cheque to take 1 to 14 days to clear and the money to be ready to spend.
There are some things in life that can only be paid for with a cashiers check. There’s a good reason for this. Cashiers checks are guaranteed by the bank, meaning that the dollar amount on that check is for sure good. A good many banks will clear this type of check instantly, though there are banks out there that don’t provide this courtesy.The name of the issuing bank will be somewhere on the check, usually at the upper left or center. Tracking information also makes these checks stand out. There is a number that lists the number of the bank issuing the card.You’ll often hear that cashiers checks are treated as cash by most banks and institutions. You heard correct. Because these checks are guaranteed by the bank, almost every bank and institution will accept the cashiers check. They’re often used to make car and house payments because of the reliability of the check.They differ from regular checks in that way. Regular checks come with no such guarantee. Many times a regular check will state an amount that may or may not be in the bank in question. This means that a bank or institution takes a risk when accepting that check and must wait until the check clears to know for sure if it’s good. Cashier checks are good when they change hands because of that all-powerful guarantee.People love to use cashiers checks and people love to receive them because of their reliable nature and the stability of the checks. They hold up their end of the bargain and there’s nothing debt collectors or lenders love more than a check that says exactly how much money they can expect to receive from it.Cashiers checks aren’t always the option for people though, due to the fact that there’s usually a slight charge for them. It’s not an astronomical charge but it’s certainly more than someone has to pay for writing an ordinary check, which is nothing. For most folks, cashiers checks are only used when a lender or institution asks that they be used in order to pay for goods or services. This keeps everyone happy.
