<prompt> Human: I dont know if this is the right sub for this, but I dont know where else to go. So about 7 months ago I quit my job at a mass retailer. Just before my last check, I set up direct deposit since I was not gonna be able to physically go to the store and get my paper check. Anyways, payday came through and I did not get my money. I only then realized that I had recently changed my bank account, and put in the wrong account number for the direct deposit. I called the bank and the store, they said I would be mailed the paper check. Awesome! 7 months later the check was finally mailed to me, but it says Check Void if not cashed 90 days from date of check. Its clearly been more than 90 days. So my question is, can I still deposit this into my account, should I contact the store first? How do I go about this?  <response>: If the former employer wont issue you a replacement check, did you try depositing it? Often tellers wont noticecare about stuff like that on a check. I know a check that has a date in the future is still a valid check you dont have to wait until the date on it to cashdeposit it. Though, generally, 6 months is the limit for most checks.
