how many days do check clear
In the United States there are laws on how long it may take to clear a check. If the check is local it must clear in 48 hours; if it is from out of state (from another state) then it must clear in 5 working days (Saturday and Sunday are not counted, even if the bank is open those days). Banks can actually clear checks within minutes of its receipt.
Quick answer: 1  Based on your bank receipt after you make a deposit, it will take approximately two days for your check to clear (keep in mind there are many factors involved that may slow this process down). 2  Typically, your bank should receive the funds from the paying institution within five business days.
