    It’s still valid today.
    Payroll fucked up and I didn’t get a deposit a few weeks back. They gave me the choice of waiting 2 weeks and having the deposit added to my next paycheck, which is totally undoable, or they would cut me a paper check that day.
    I took the paper check.
    I decided it would be easiest if I could use my Bank apps Mobile deposit but it only allowed me to access $500 of it that day, the rest had to wait until the next business day which was Monday.
    If I would have thought about it I would have done it this way so I could have had access to the whole check before the weekend.

      You still don’t necessarily get the full amount. Depending on the bank writing the check, you may only get a person available today. Payroll checks might give you all of it, but I’ve had checks deposited in person that only let me have the first 3-500 available immediately.
