Cheque Longevity

How long does my Adsense cheque remain live

[camweh]

For financial reasons (what else) I need to know how long my adsense cheque remains live.

[jatar_k]

I think cheques are good for 6 months from the date

I assume that will change by country/bank but I believe that is the case in CA

Why don't you exchange the cheque right-away (for financial reasons)?

[HowYesNo]

but what if i go on holiday for 2-3 months and after that is cheques still valid, or is better to hold payout during holidays

Often, many companies print on the check how long it is good for. Look on your next check and see if has a "void after xx days"

In the uk the standard cheque validity is 6months.

After 6 months the bank are under no obligation to honour the cheque.

However, it generally will work on the validity of the company issuing the cheque - for their accounting records they usually impose a maximum period ( I believe it is 6months for google as others have stated). After the 6 months google would void the cheque so your bank, no matter which country would not honour the cheque because they would not be entitled to receive funds from google.

So the absolute max would be 6months which is long enough for anyone I would think as uncashed cheques do not earn you cash :P

Officially Google cheque is valid for 6 months however some banks dont accept cheques that is more than 90 days from the date of issued.

i think to be safe, you need to cash out before 90 days. Most of the banks will not accept cheque more than 90 days from the date of issud.
