Unless stated a check is valid for up to 6 months. |

It is six months for most checks, unless it is a rebate check or a refund from a company which usually has the expiration date on it.
Cheque and check are the same thing! Typically check is used in American English and cheque is used in British English. They are both acceptable spellings. |

In many banks if they are not cashed within 180 days from the day it's written, they are nullified. |

If there is no expiration date on it, you can always cash it. But if it’s old, the account might not be open, and you don’t want to surprise them.

Personal and business checks technically do not have an expiration date. |

Most places will have a 90 or 180 day time limit printed on the checks (paychecks, reimbursement checks) |

I know someone who got a check from an ex and he waited over a year , they told him that 1 yr was the limit. But if they close the account before you get to the bank to cash it you wont get your money. |

Depends on the type of check. A personal check usually doesn't expire. Things like rebate checks usually have a 45 day or 90 day limit, but it will say it right on the check. Tax refunds give you 6 months, I believe.
The bottom line is any check that has a limit, will usually say the limit right on the check. |
