My boyfriends bank held his income tax return check for 30 days!! They said that they had to to make sure the check would clear. Ummmm it was a check from HR Block....I think they are good for it!! :lol:

If the check was from HR Block, it was an advance loan on your boyfriend's income tax return. Not the actual tax return check. Those come from the IRS and will gladly be cashed by any bank. Although, 30 days does seem a bit long. I bet it posted to his account sooner than that. They probably just said 30 days to be safe.

I used to use H &R Block and I got the same check. They offer this service so you don't have to wait for the real check. I didn't have any problem using it. This was last year.
Maybe this is another instance where they are nervous because of the problems with the banks. Don't know but doesn't seem right!!

I use a credit union also. Their rules are a tad different, and out of state checks are usually held for 5 days. I'm sew sorry you had this difficulty, but glad you have it resolved, at least for now!
Great news on the book! :lol:

I had a check held FROM THE BANK THAT ISSUED THE CHECK - now that's something to worry about.

when i first started using this board, i had never been on a site like this, so took me a while to find my way around. Was so pleased to find, that not only was there gobs and gobs of quilting info, pics, etc. but a place to just let your hair down and say whatever is on your mind...and get a lot of support.
You live your whole life, being an honest, decent person, and then some little thing, and somebody is questioning your very character, and not doing their job right. Quilting sure makes up for a lot in this world.
