Long story short, I applied to work at Best Buy. I did the training, passed the drug test, hell, I went through three interviews.

Never got called in for work.

Anyway, I went up there to pick up my paycheck for the three days I trained a couple of weeks later. Some manager wasn't there so I couldn't get my check. I figured I'd come back later or they'll just mail it to me. Eventually I got another job and the pay check slipped my mine.

This was in June 2004.

Yesterday, I got a check in the mail. Post marked last week and a check with my name on it. 58$. The check was printed June 2004 sometime. Under it, it said "check expires in 6 months".

What do I need to do about the expired check? im going up the bank today and see if they'll cash it.

throw a 2 in front of the 6 so it reads "check expires in 26 months".

I've deposited an expired check before. If the teller isn't paying attention and you put it in with some other checks you may be able to slip it by.

Call Best Buy HR Corporate ... probably still have your employment information somewhere on file. Shouldn't take more than a 15 minute phone call and a postage stamp to send it back to them for a new one.
