I'm just wondering how long does our paychecks lasted b/c I have some that are not cashout yet...too busy...so I'm thinking about switching to direct deposit...

You'd have to either contact the bank or ask your employer - many times they're good for 6 months; but that's just more or less a general rule of thumb vs a definitive answer. Direct deposit is always a good thing:-)

Also, in the event that they are expired, the checks can be reissued

It should say it on your check..."Void after 120 days" or something like that.

My present employer's checks have a 60 day time limit printed on the face of the check, so I don't let them sit around. In general, if a check (with no limit printed on it), is not cashed for a year, then it is considered "stale" and the bank may not honor it.

I think mine is 90 days. Sometimes I don't get around to cashing mine right away. I thank God my husband makes decent money.

Hmmm... really!!! I never know about this before, if it's true that would be awesome:)

I noticed that some checks that I received from other places have the expired date on it but these checks that are issued at our facility didn't say it at all...

It is a little bit of a process (re: paperwork) - but most employers will reissue a check if it expires and you approach them about it. It only happened to me one time (because I actually lost the check, the subsequently found it a long time after). But it was replaced and I since switched to direct deposit
