Question

Is it possible to float a check these days?

Answer 1

Yeah, but it is risky business.  Banks are quick to process checks when they receive them.  The most you can count on, is the quickest time it takes for mail delivery.  If it is in-state, 2 business days with regular mail.  It is something that I would not make a habit out of it.

Answer 2

I'd only try it at a cash advance place.  I wouldn't want to incur overdraft fees.

Answer 3

Sure, it's also a crime!
