How long does a check that I deposited take to clear with wachovia if i deposited it on the weekend?

Question

I deposited my economy stimulus check at wachovia saturday, and i was wondering how long it would take to affect my account or how long it will take for my check to clear?

Answer 1

Banks vary on government checks. If you bank online check there, if not call the 800 number that you would call to check your balance and it may tell you when the funds will be available if they are not already.

Answer 2

i'm with wachovia too. if your check didn't clear today it will tomorrow. the atm deposit thingy takes longer so good luck and happy spending!

Answer 3

Well, forget the weekend.  The bank will work on clearing that check come Monday.  Then, it depends on if the check is drawn on a Wachovia account or some other bank.  Being a government check, the bank will probably credit your account on Monday night so the money should be available on Tuesday.

If it had been a personal check, you could be facing several days before the bank would clear all the money for you to be able to use.  

You could always call the bank and check with them.  Their customer service groups are usually very helpful.
